Yes I have it along with Asthma. I explained on the claim form all about the impact that particular issue causes. The assessor cured me, she reported that as I was not receiving specialist treatment for either and that my breathing seemed normal whilst seated they disregarded it as a minor issue. The MR agreed.freckles said:Hi i,ve got my pip tribunial hearing date its for the 30th jan i would like to no has anyone had a hearing with suffering from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis if so how was your hearing and did the tribunial take into account about ipf and how it affect your daily living
Mind you she asked me to give a couple of breath pressure samples. Put the tube between my lips correctly as taught by the asthma nurse and blew a 240 and a 260. Both readings similar to the ones at the GP's surgery.The report said that the low readings were because I did not hold the tube correctly and was trying to sabotage the test.

Thats awful ! Did you say how it affects your daily life ?

Of course I did. But if the assessor is of the opinion that the conditions are not as severe as I made out, the impact claimed must be overstated.Lindaann said:Thats awful ! Did you say how it affects your daily life ?

Was it the assessor that said this or was it the descison maker ? X
