I feel so deflated... received my award letter today and scored 0 points. How is that even possible when I'm struggling everyday with chronic pain and feeling completely exhausted! 

I'm considering a mandatory reconsideration but have read that the result rarely changes I don't know if I have a fight in me 😢

    You have read correctly, the most likely outcome of the MR will be the decision remains the same but you could be one of those 27% who do have the decision changed at this stage.
    You have 1 month from the date of the decision to request the MR which should be put in writing stating where and why you think you should have scored those points.
    Include a couple of real world incidents of exactly what happened the last time you attempted each activity that applies to you. Adding detailed information such as where you were, what exacetly happened, did anyone see it and what the consequences were. You should aim for at least half an A4 side of paper per descriptor that applies.
