Hi. I'm sure this question comes up frequently and sorry as only just joined this site.
I was diagnosed by a doctor, then a professor of immunology, for fibromyalgia.
I am on ESA but have been told recently that I'm entitled to PIP too ?
Is there Anyone on here that could give me advice please?

    PIP isn't award based on a diagnosis, it totally depends on how your affected by your conditions daily. You can complete the online PIP self test, this will give you some idea what you could possibly score. Evidence would be needed to support your claim as they rarely contact anyone for this.


    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
