Advice Please. was created by spanner

Good Afternoon,

I suffer from Osteoarthritis in Neck, Shoulders and Knees.
Most recent visit to GP mid-Dec, I had more Cortisone Injections and Left Knee drained of fluid build-up.
I was told by GP I needed Physio rather quickly. Unfortunately, the waiting list pre-COVID was 8 / 9 months.
Work has arranged for me to be seen by a qualified Sports Massage Therapist.
Would evidence from this person carry any weight with a PIP Application?

Many Thanks

Hi Spanner

Yes, you should include a letter from a qualified Sports Massage Therapist. It would help if you could tell them what you want them to include. I always try to tell specialists what needs to be included, because sometimes specialists at any level can say things that hinder an application rather than help.

If anyone gives you a letter that is damaging - never include it in your evidence.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
