    Hi there @madee93 I've just moved your comment into it's own discussion so it's easier for more current members to find it and share their thoughts. I hope that's okay :) 

    I'm sorry to hear there hasn't been much improvement at this stage. Are you in touch with your GP or other specialists about it? 

    Regarding adaptions, can I ask if you are receiving PIP currently?
