    Hi mate my name is Mark cassidy.

    I've suffering with tietze syndrome for three years and counting. I have been out of work for the same time. I get esa pip benefits. Im on alot of pain relief for this. It has destroy my life. I was fit and healthy worked hard. Now I'm just in pain all the time. Some days worse than others. I call them attacks now. Last year was my worst year I've had the attacks could last upto a week. But at the beginning they would last a few hours. But to your question yes I receive pip. But you have get someone else to fill the form out. Coz when I filled my first form out myself they refused me it.!!!! Cheers Mark
