My consultant has confirmed that i have secondary Fibromyalgia and degenrative spine at C2. Does anyone know if Fibro would give extra points on PIP..Would I have to go for another assesment or would the DWP just look at my case notes..The latest news on the PIP being looked at again due to the point scoring does that apply to everyone.

All depends on what effects fibromyalgia has on your day to day..... night time activities.
Cooking... washing.... bed.....anxiety depression.. etc -
The PIP claims being looked at are only in the planning and following journeys due to psychological distress
If you are putting in for a change of circumstance you will be called for a full reassessment
