    Acctually id like to ask somebody on here that it said DWP made their decision used on two medical reports and the claim form but no mention of the assessors report ...just wondering if they don't mention that they made the desion using the assessors report .

    Yes that's what the assessor has said in her report it's a good idea to get it though because if you aren't satisfied with the decision you can tell them why and point out where your assessor has gone wrong

    Just had my PIP form for fibromyalgia. Doctor has suppprted my choice to do this as i told i had bladder cancer October and fibromyalgia confirmed the week after. I cant even think about going bk to work as i know i wont cope for all sorts of reasons.
    My problem with visits is that cancer cant be seen and anyone with fibromyalgia knows most days are horrific but the odd day can appear quite normal. My luck would be the 'visit' would be on a better day.
