PIP tribunal have agreed a paper appeal however it says it’s been adjourned for 56 days and stating that they are ensuing with me about my dizzy spells how often they happen and the effect on daily life they have said nothing about my diabetes or anxiety and depression just wondering if anyone has any idea what that would be about

PIP isn't about a diagnosis. What matters is exactly how your conditions affect you against the 12 PIP activities. Asking about one thing doesn't mean they're not taking into consideration everything else.

Please be aware that paper based appeals have an extremely low success rate of between 5-8%. It's always better to appear in person.

Thank you just wondering though why it was adjourned asking in the letter about dizzy spells

Only the members of the tribunal know the details of why they decided they need more information. I would guess it may mean they found some of the information available contradictory or unclear and want clarification in order to be able to make a properly informed decision.

Are you confident in providing them with some further information? Have you sought any expert advice for your appeal? 

As you've mentioned experiencing anxiety and depression, I also wanted to check in with you to see whether you feel as though you're receiving enough support to help you manage those conditions at the moment?
