HI and welcome,PIP isn't about a diagnosis, it's how those conditions affect your ability to carry out daily activity based on the PIP descriptors. Yes people claim PIP and work but if the work you do contradicts the reasons why you're claiming PIP then you could be refused.It will be worth having a read of this to give yourself some understanding of the PIP descriptors and what they mean.
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. -
