Hi Gordon.

I have progressive MS, an eating disorder, anxiety and depression, chronic fatigue, eye sight problems, underachievement thyroid and a few other ailments.

I had my PIP assessment yesterday and really not happy with how it went. I had a home visit as my anxiety and mobility is terrible at the minute.

It felt really quite rushed and he said on numerous occasions that we'd get to that when I mentioned an issue but never did.

He challenged why a letter they has got from my MS SPECIALIST didn't have info about my depression yet I use my GP and psychologist for help with my depression.

I told him I do two hours of physio a day assisted by my caregiver yet he said he didn't need that.

Should I ring DWP or ATOS and share my concerns before I even receive his report?

There were 7 other issues we felt with the assessment also

You can certainly phone the DWP about this but at the moment they are only concerns, they will have more force if you can link them to comments in the assessment report. You can request a copy of this by contacting the DWP office dealing with you claim, I would leave it until tomorrow to do this to ensure they have actually received the report.
