    No one can answer that because PIP isn’t awarded based on any diagnosis. It depends on how your conditions affect your ability against the 12 PIP activities.

    Hi @Taylornoreen63 :) As poppy123456 has said, it'll depend on how many points you're awarded. 

    Daily living

    Lower weekly rate: £61.85
    Higher weekly rate: £92.40

    Mobility

    Lower weekly rate: £24.45
    Higher weekly rate: £64.50

    (gov.uk)
    You get the standard rate if you score between 8 and 11 points for each element. You get the enhanced rate if you score 12 points or more for each element.

    I hope that helps :)

    Note also that PIP is always an individual benefit. Whether you are single or in a couple makes no difference
