Sorry to be a pain with more questions. So I posted my MR over a week ago via special delivery. It was received the following morning. I have today received a text message saying they have received it and I do not need to contact them again. Is this standard practice? Is it not quite quick?

I'm shaking with fear and anxiety now and every worst case scenario is going through my head. I'm terrified at what it means.


It's a standard text message that they send, I would not read any more in to it than they have your MR request.

Thank you so much for the quick reply. I will try my best to put it out my head for the time being. I am just really struggling to cope with the stress of it all. And my mind goes into overdrive.

Hi everyone,

Today has turned into a wonderful day. My MR has been successful, I have been awarded enhanced daily living until 2020. The mobility component remains unchanged, but that's ok as I did not challenge it within my MR letter. I cannot believe it, I have been ill with worry since my dla to pip transfer was initiated in January. It has been a long and agonising time.

I will post a more detailed explanation of my PIP MR journey later when I stop shaking. In the meantime, I just wanted to say thank you to this wonderful site and its guides. As well as give hope to others that the decisions can be overturned at MR stage.

Xxxx

Thank you Butterrainbow for your post which does give hope to those who await the result of their MR. I am feeling very despondent about it but I am so pleased to hear your good news. Time now to relax and put it to the back of your mind.
