    Was awake most of nite worrying bout PIP review. Was worried i did not give enough information or i sounded 2 happy. Got to go shoppin as need milk but still not had a hot meal. I know the call is done but worried n think i shd write letter n add bits or just leave it.We did cover everythin but never mentioned i get breathless when walking cause of only 1 lung but that wld b in my notes anyway.

    Hi @kes2611

    How are you today? 

    I'm glad the assessor was nice, it's normal to not have the chance to say everything you want to, either due to time constraints or nerves. Hopefully you can relax a bit now it's over, and I hope you eat a meal soon.

    Hi @kes2611 :) I'm sorry to hear that you've been having panic attacks. Is there anything you've tried before that has helped to ease your panic attacks? For example have you tried any grounding techniques? 

    My understanding is that there'll be boxes with dots on the report you request. You can them compare these against the descriptors to see what score has been suggested.

    If i do not get my pip renewed i will not appeal aa dint have strength. Have been looking at last assesment report letter n the summary n points awarded were fair to what i had put on form. Am hopeing for same outcome as form i did this time was v similar only my MH is worse now n my back.

    Try and put it out of your mind for now @kes2611. I appreciate that the appeal process can seem daunting, but it could be worth it if you don't get the result you're hoping for. You can cross that bridge when you come to it :) 

    How are you feeling today? Did you manage to get some sleep?
