Update: I have been successful in transferring from DLA to PIP. Yay! It took a lot of hard work and I had to pay for a letter from my GP (which was noted along with all other medical supporting evidence). Although there are a few discrepancies (one has to wonder if the assessor/decision maker is assessing one person and not combining two entirely different personas); I am not about to make waves and as the outcome/result is a good one for me I shall be grateful.
I wish you all the very best of luck and thanks to all for the help and support given to me. :-)

Hi @Broken, glad you are fixed. It is lovely to hear about your good news,
I know what you mean about the persona thing I have read some reports where I have apparently had a gender change and have problems I never knew I had and taking medication that I have never even heard of
Wishing you all the very best also and I hope you will feel better now that monkey is off your back X -
Congrats @Broken

Well done Broken.
