 Hello, I'm new here, I registered on this site, 2 weeks ago, Ive just found the courage to introduce myself, I applied for pip, had my assessment, The assessor ( Paramedic ) was unable to give me any points, I have17 years long-standing HIV  infection controlled by antiretroviral, COPD (emphysema ) very breathless, have had Depression & Anxiety, most of my life, Had a heart attack 2017 was Stented and they never repaired the aneurysm, near the blockage,  I've made a Mandatory Reconsideration having read that, the Paramedic is delusional and her findings I want to challenge,  I now have a capability for work questionnaire my heads all over the place, any suggestions or advice I'd been very grateful. Thank you for taking time to read this :)

    Hi @licoriceman1 and welcome to the community! It's great to have you with us. That certainly does sound like an awful lot to handle at one time!
    Are you requiring any support filling out the work questionnaire or going through the PIP mandatory reconsideration?
    It may be worth creating two discussions so the two benefit topics can be dealt with separately. We have a PIP board where you can cover the MR and an ESA board if you require help with the form.
    I hope this is beneficial and helpful, please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help :)
