i have this since 2010 i had disabillity payments then pip came in and i have been refused i appealed and went to court and the judge said although he can see i got worse i should apply again
i have all consultants letters and i am finding it hard to grasp that i have been refused .
i take pain killers constantly and i am in pain all day every day and alot of the time being unable to do anything
does anyone out there have any problems dealing with pip with this condition
