Yes, I get pip at the high level, they have reduced everytime there was a review but I took them to the appeal proces and won both times, I also recieve universal credit, I am unable to work with the severity of my fibro when having a flare up, my worst flare up lasted 6 month, on average they last between 6-12 weeks when I get them, last year I lost 33 weeks in total, if you need any help on claiming get back to me.

Hi Brettj
Thank you for your reply, this has brought me some hope. I was advised to claim due to me losing hours at work, now off on sick as I’ve had a really bad flare up amongst other things. My claim has been rejected and Iam now taking it to appeal but Iam finding it so draining.
