PIP - Fibro/CFS/ME
8 years 1 month ago #153442 by Twinkle
PIP - Fibro/CFS/ME was created by Twinkle
Hi
Is anyone on the forum suffering from Fibromyalgia/CFS/ME and in receipt of PIP?
If so, is anyone in receipt of the Enhanced Rate Mobility?
I'm thinking of applying but was just wondering how difficult it is to obtain the Enhanced Rate Mobility whilst suffering from these fluctuating conditions.
Thank you.

Hi Twinkle,
The whole point of the switch to PIP is that it is harder to get than DLA. It is quite possible for people to have been, quite properly, receiving DLA and then also properly, to be denied PIP.
However, we certainly do have members with CFS/ME/FMS who are in receipt of PIP mobility award.
If you bookmark/favourite this topic now, you will find it easily and will be able to come back and post further questions and comments about a potential PIP claim.

Thanks in anticipation of your future co-operation in keeping all your future PIP related queries to this topic !
