I received my letter today advising that I haven't been successful for PIP.
I scored 6 points for daily living and 4 points for mobility .
I got 0 points for cognitive function - possibly because I managed to spell world backwards and remembered 3 words ! This does not accurately reflect my cognitive function .
I'm currently off work sick and I am receiving treatment at a CFS service .
Is it worth asking for a reconsideration , then appeal ?
I don't have any further evidence other than additional fit notes and the letter from CFS service outlining my symptoms .
How long does the whole appeal process take ?
Thanks in advance .
