hello there,
i very rarely post on here but i genuinely need advice. i have ehlers-danlos syndrome and autism, i primarily use an active wheelchair and SMARTcrutches to get around places and PIP has declined me twice and now awaiting a tribunal date.
i applied back in March 2025 as my physical condition was worsening and i was slowly losing my capability to work a regular job and i was stressed out about money and paying bills.
i have submitted many medical records, doctors notes, diagnostic letters, referral letters from my rheumatologist, physiotherapist, and pain clinic, medications, photographs of all my mobility aids and massive bruises from falls, sick/fitness notes, all of the works. yet they declined me TWICE.
so far i have scrambled together a 14 page document going over absolutely everything again but in more detail around their questions. ive also included more info such as blue badge, nimbus/access card, highlighting all the ‘misunderstandings’ (lies) PIP put on their statements about me.
what else can i physically do for tribunal to actually listen and take this seriously? im so worried and scared ive wasted over a year stressing about this and im going to have to reapply again and lose all my progress and backpay.
