    Hi @gudrun

    Sorry to hear about the situation that you are currently facing. Please forgive me as I am still learning about issues that people face when dealing with benefits, etc. I am sure there are members of the community with a lot more knowledge and will be more than happy to support you.

    The DWP doesn't care what is wrong with you, what illness you have or what medication you have had.

    The evidence you have to find relates entirely to proving which of the descriptors fit the impact on your life.
