DLA to PIP was created by Sheena H
I have just received the result of my Mandatory Reconsideration for PIP. I'm fuming.
I have Systemic Lupus which is a fluctuating lifelong condition. This condition doesn't fit into the assessment boxes at all. This condition has stolen my 25 year career, my social life, my confidence and just about everything else.
My assessment was so degrading.
Descriptions about me in the assessment were shockingly inaccurate and insulting.
I looked well kept and was articulate.... I was, but what does that have to do with anything.
I held my ID.... which apparently means the stiffness and pain in my hands doesnt affect me.
I didn't look in pain.... When you have pain all the time you learn to live with it.

Off to appeal at Tribunal with the assistance of your guides.
Will keep you posted.
