    Just looked up mine, with all this talk.
    Registered last year and he will expire in 2019. Bet he sleeps better than me though!!!

    As much as I think this forum is great, we need to be mindful of feeding people's anxieties, or in my case the can't help but nosey.

    Pass the pile cream. Isn't that a myth though sitting on cold seats gives you piles.

    To be honest, a semi trained monkey could carry out an assessment.

    IT IS NOT A  MEDICAL !!

    PIP is an assessment of functionality, they are looking at the " HOW " you are affected by whatever condition you have. Your condition and medical evidence provides the  "WHY "  and is of secondary importance

    @Victoriad  I dont think so.  More like the Assessor who is paid from the public purse who is knowingly and wilfully committing a crime of misrepresentation at the expense of a vulnerable AND the taxpayers.

    On a personal level, I would not walk into a room and let an untrained medical person examine me.  In the real world if a person touches me, it could be construed as common assault.  

    At my assessment I was asked to look up, look right and left, look down, which I did but just once. (Pain).I have arthritis in my neck, and at its worse for months when turning, left to right I get this very loud crunching.  Dries me mad.  At present the crunching is there, but thankfully is quiet.  
    Because of this problem, I must not exercise my neck, because it can bring on a stroke.

    on reflection, I think I was foolish to turn my head this way and that.  It was because I thought  my assessor was an health professional, and  lulled into a false sense of  security.  I think my assessor was medically trained, because when I put my head down, she actually said, don't do that!
    @charlene  This is exactly what I am talking about.  You were LULLED into a FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY by someone you thought you could trust.  After you had described your history to the Assessor they should not have told you to carry out those movements which could have caused more damage.  This is why our GPs are the best people to provide information to the DWP not some cowboy outfit like ATOS or CAPITA who have been told by the DWP to deliberately get their Assessors to lie about Claimants health issues.  A REAL NURSE would not have compromised your arthritic neck.  As for this Victoriad who keeps bleating, she needs to back off.  Sounds like a real JOBSWORTH not wanting the truth to be revealed.
