    You can reapply for PIP.  Disabilty Rights UK site has a good guide to all stages of PIP.  Try to get f2f advice from CAB or similar.

    If you are reapplying for PIP  you can Do a PIP self-test to see how you could score and also it may help to read how to make a claim in the Disability Rights UK guide.

    The CAB have a great guide to filling in your PIP forms that have been very helpful to lots of members.

    Good luck and let us know if you have any questions :)

    We went through citizens advice they wrote a letter to reapply for us but did not make any odds my partner gave up on it we had pip for a year then a woman came out to reassess him she scored him nought on everything and nothing had changed and nothing has changed now still on same medication but he says it waste of time with it cause it causes him too much stress thinking about it all over again he suffers with really bad anxiety and panic attacks
