As advised by the local DAB, I was very open about MC and provided the prescription for my PIP claim, and my claim has been successful. They didn't ask me anything specific about it at my one to one, just if i was taking medication of any kind, so I had a chance to go into it a bit there too, but the assesor didn't even seem bothered to talk about it... he just said 'anything more conventional as well?' or something like that.
In case anyone needs to know for any reason

The use of MC has no effect on PIP claims whatsoever

How long did it take to hear back from them after your application? I applied on 1st September but I’ve not heard a peep.
