I have just put in my pip claim I have chiari malformation, kyphoscoliosis and syrinx. I suffer with chronic pain and lots of other symptoms I am worried in case this doesn’t get approved and wondered what other people’s experiences are?

Hi Alex @alexfoulkes89
The thread where you'll find conversations on PIP is here: https://community.scope.org.uk/categories/talk-about-pip-dla
Be aware, though, that because this is a support service for people who have problems, we don't get many posts from those whose applications have been immediately successful. That means that you're likely to see far more negative posts about the subject than positive ones.
Whatever else, try not to let what you read dishearten you. Everything could go well for you and, if it doesn't, we're here and ready to help.
Warmest best wishes to you,
Richard
