    Hi @Stuart1626
    You can fill in the online benefit calculator here to see if you are entitled to any support, there is also a self PIP test here.

    Does it affect your ability to do day to day tasks and you may qualify for PIP for starters.

    PIP isn't about a diagnosis, it's how your conditions affect your ability to carry out daily activities based on the PIP descriptors. Evidence will be needed to support your claim and you'll need a face to face assessment.
