Not yet diagnosed must submit PIP Claim

I haven’t seen the hospital team yet but have had MRI and tel. consultation, they want to see me soon. In meantime I must submit my PIP claim form. I am worried that because my main condition is not yet diagnosed, this may go against my application.
Is there any kind of ‘temporary evidence’ I can attach to my PIP form stating that I am suffering from a ‘suspected’ condition? Or any other kind of supporting evidence I can attach to PIP form? Any tips and advice welcome, thanks.

Hi Hil

If you have had a telephone consultation and MRI you can report on this, but remember the most important issue is the impact your condition has on the specific PIP criteria. It can be a challenge when you don't have a 'firm diagnosis' but just be as clear as you can and send in what evidence you have.
