PIP CLAIM FORM

PIP CLAIM ~ TIME SENSITIVE. PLEASE HELP
Hi, I’ve got an online PIP claim form which needs to be returned by 1st December 2020. Due to circumstances so far this year, I’ve seen my doctor less. MUCH less. However, in the background I’ve had X-rays, MRI’s & 2 CT scans. The outcome of these? Spinal surgery which was performed on 27th October. Just under 4 weeks ago.

Two years ago I lost an appeal & a tribunal. My circumstances, medication & any help I received has all altered during that time.
Main question is, where do I get medical evidence to support my claim?

They’ve mentioned things like any scan/X-ray results, evidence from any form of healthcare provider I’ve been with. Written accounts from friends and family or docs etc about how my condition affects my day to day life. Other than medical appointments , I’ve barely seen another soul since February. NOT all due to lockdown(s), but because of my anxiety, depression, stress, pain levels. These have worn me down to such a point of isolation that I’ve become a recluse. Again, no medical worker/Doc would be able to write to PIP to confirm this, as they’ve not seen me.
Sorry fir the long blare, but if anyone does read to this point, can you please HELP,,,,,

I only sent my prescription list and letter to confirm my sight impairment
You are better getting a letter from someone who sees how you cope on daily basis eg partner carer etc
Also your own account of what happens when you try do the tasks against the descriptors how you do it what help or aids you use can you do the task safely and repeated
More detail on the form describing this with real examples is the best evidence you can send
