    Me too @ballkeeper :/
    Welcome, fancy sharing a bit or is it too soon?

    I suffer with arthritis, prolapsed disc, depression, autoimmune illness and a few others. 

    I have had the honour of being invited to meet with one of the PIP assessors at my f2f in a couple of weeks. :p

    I'm also quite new here and finding it supportive and friendly. I am sure you will too.

    Hi @ballkeeper

    Welcome to our online community/family.

    Yes I had my f2f at home a few months ago.

    The report was completely different/someone else’s.

    I asked for a “Mandatory Reconsideration”

    This came back “closer” in the end.

    Please let me know if you need any help in getting around????

    Hi, I'm new here too and have got a f2f PIP assessment soon.  Have you seen the information about them on this site?  I just had a look myself: https://www.scope.org.uk/advice-and-support/preparing-for-pip-assessment/.
    Good luck!
