    HI,

    PIP isn't about a diagnosis, it's how those conditions affect your ability to carry out daily activities based on the PIP descriptors. No one on an internet forum can tell you whether you're entitled to PIP.

    Did you ask for the MR then Tribunal if that failed with the last decision?
    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.

    For PIP you don't need a diagnosis. I presume you told the DWP on the claim form all about how your life has been impacted whether you had a diagnosis or not?
