Hi @darylmenzies, and a warm welcome to the community!
Thanks for sharing this with us. PIP isn't awarded based on diagnoses, but how your conditions affect you day to day. Citizens Advice have some great online guidance on filling in the PIP form which you may like to read. Have a look, and do feel free to come back to us with any questions!
