I would start by seeing your GP, first of all to help you with the increased anxiety that you are having and secondly to see if they can help you with this assessment, if they can provide extra information about your conditions and how they effect you it may be possible for a Paper Based Review to be done so that you do not have to attend.

Not much luck my gp was on leave and the mental health team said they did not have a enough time.
But today was the day.,my anxiety went through the roof,i was sweating kept having to go to the loo and had those horrible butterflies in my tummy.
I did get into a state she fired questions so fast i was getting confused and im sure she asked me the same questions more then once!
She said I should hear in 2 weeks!

The most important thing is that you made it to the assessment, well done.

Give it a couple of days and you should be able to request a copy of the assessment report be contacting the DWP office dealing with your claim.

I would expect a Decision in 2-4 weeks, so maybe longer than you were told.

Thank you . how do I find out who is handling my claim?
Is it where I had my assessment?
I was getting so confused the way she was firing the questions at me
Like can I get out off the bath,I said yes when in fact I have to use the sink
Something about my balance I said it was ok when in fact I fallen but not very often I just put this down to my meds!
Will this make any difference?
Thank you

The address and phone number for the DWP office dealing with your claim will be on any of the letters that you have received about your PIP claim from the DWP.
