Has anyone with Fibromyalgia been successful in applying for PIP?

Hi Guys and Girls, has anyone applied for PIP and been successful? I have Fibromyalgia, it seems to be getting worse. So I'm hoping to be able to just do part time at work and get a boost from the gov. I am on Amitriptyline 20mg before bed. I take regular painkillers throughout the day. Any advice would be amazing. TIA..... xx

I have fibro and also get pip, but I'm unable to work and no pain mefs seem to touch it when it's at its worst unfortunately. I am on.the lowest level I can be on though and had to apply for it twice in order to get it. They definately don't make it easy, do you get any other disability benefits? It all goes on what you can and can't do really x

I don't receive anything else. I'm struggling with even washing my hair/dying my hair. I used to walk for miles. I find it a struggle to just pick my child up from school. It's just come on so quick. X
