hi I have finally had X-rays done on both hands and have osteoarthritis in all my dip joints on both hands. Have given up my job in retail as hands too painful and struggle everyday doing the normal things. It is getting me down and I am already on anxiety meds before all this. I am thinking of applying for pip but hear horrible stories, not sure what to do?
