All In The UK Who Have Enhanced Rate Pip. Do You Know What This £750 The Government Give You When You Get A Mobility Car And What It's For?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I recently June 2023 got my claim from March 2022 assessed thanks to the help of my local Tory MP and I've been awarded the enhanced rate for both care and mobility and am looking into getting a mobility car. They've given it to me until 1st June 2033 and backdated the higher awards to March 2022. Does anyone have a mobility car and know what this £750 is for as I'm confused by it all.

Could A Charity Or Some Organisation Be Paying My Gas/electric For Me?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was moved into a downstairs flat on 6th April 2021 so far all we seem to be getting are monthly statements sent to the occupier, nobody has ever been around to do readings as both boxes accessable. I tried calling, emailing and writing to them to no avail we even opened a complaint all of which has been ignored. I tried the ombudsman but they returned it all to Utilita Energy as they hadn't replied to anything. I'm still waiting how do I find out if someone is paying this as each year I lose… read more

It is strange that company that sent the bill should be able to say who is to pay the bill. Do you rent this place you live in? Then is it in your lease to pay the utility or is it included with the… read more

Is Arthritis In The Hands Common With Fibromyalgia?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Over the past few months I have had increasingly painful jabs in my hand. Sometimes I can’t even open my hand enough to open a door with a door knob. Is this common? If so, what should I do?

I have neuropathy, osteoarthritis, and gout in both hands. The gout is unbearable leaving me unable to use my hands. I pray you do not have it.

What Natural Supplements/remedies Do Any Of You Take In Support Of/or Instead Of Prescribrd Medicines?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Can I please call on your wealth of experience and knowledge when I ask you what natural supplements do you take? I already take magnesium, vit B & evening primrose but I am thinking more about exploring and trying others. I don't know if this is the best approach to take, but I reckon if anyone can/will give me honesty in their answers, it's all of you. Right now I am open to all suggestions about supplements (I shall be exploring therapies another time, fairy steps). Thank you x

.I've Just Had My PIP Assessment And Don't Quite Understand Why The Assessor Was Asking Hypothetical Questions!
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Assessor also insisted that I could stand for 20 seconds even though I now use a wheelchair indoors and out. Also insisted that my bedroom is 20 seconds away from my bathroom without having seen my flat. Is this another way to stop use getting what we are entitled too!
Hopefully somebody can shed some light on this as so confused.
