    Hi, this will help you understand what is involved to getting PIP.

    If you already get DLA, your claim might end. You’ll get a letter telling you when this will happen and how you can apply for 

    EligibilityYou must be aged 16 to 64 and have a health condition or disability where you: have had difficulties with daily living or getting around (or both) for 3 months. expect these difficulties to continue for at least 9 months (unless you're terminally ill with less than 6 months to live)

    See here https://www.gov.uk/pip/how-to-claim

    I created one of the campaign election videos for Labour, and Jeremy Corbyn,
    This is a new version of Emeli Sande, Hope "You Are Not Alone
    I highlighted everything that's wrong with this country from benefits, NHS, UC etc, but now we have to put up with the hate now that is the Tories. 

    You can see the video here.

    The simple answer is that the assessor was trying to establish if you go to a bank or the post office to get your money. If so then you can mobilise, can handle money and have no problem finding your way there.
    Meds mean very little. They could indicate that you do have a condition but then it depends on the type and dosage involved - they by themselves will not get you points.
