Hi @Georgieboy63 welcome to the forum you can apply for pip and still work, it's mainly on how your disabilities effect you more then diagnosis. Also universal credit depending on your income and savings as its means tested. Some links below to look at and some members who are good with benefit advice might pop on later to advice.

Hello @Georgieboy63, welcome to the community. What kind of advice are you looking for? I'll pop your post over to our benefits section in case you've got any more questions to ask.
You might find a benefits calculator useful. If you enter your details, they can help you to understand what you might be eligible for and how much you could get.
Hope you'll find the community a friendly and useful place to be. Let us know if you need any help! Rosie (she/her)
