I am waiting for a decision for PIP. I have been on DLA and had a letter telling me I had to apply for PIP. This was in June this year. I had to have  a face to face assessment, and 3 weeks later I rang the DWP and was told my decision was with the decision makers. I am still waiting to hear and its making me very anxious. Has anyone else had to wait over 3 months like me?

    Hi @Babsl57
    It must be so difficult not knowing the results.  I know others on here are going through the same or similar issues.  It might get be worth getting involved with the discussions about PIP, if you need reassurances or support.
    Thanks for joining the forum  and it's lovely to meet you.  :)
