Hello, I’m Dave and live in Telford. I’m interested in the views about the above especially when it comes to claiming PIP. I’ve worked all my life but are coming to the stage where DDD is making my job very difficult to do. I’m 58 years of age.

    Hi @davearrow64 welcome to the forum 
    Have you had an oc heath assessment through work? To see about adaptions. 
    Pip is about how your illness effects your daily living. Like washing and bathing, preparing meals, your mobility etc. 
    I also have DDD, so I know how it is.

    Hello @davearrow64

    Welcome to the community! :) I'm so sorry that your DDD is making it difficult for you to work. Are you looking to apply for PIP or have you already started the process?
