I'd suggest having a chat with the BLF Helpline on 03000 030 555, Mon-Fri 10-6
They have nurses who will be able to talk to you and give you the terms that you should be asking about.
You also need to ask the hospital to send you copies of the letters they send to your GP, if you don't already get copies. This will provide useful proof when filling in new forms. I'm guessing by your referal to the DSS that you've been long term disabled.
Also good to get expert assistance in form filling from the CAB or Age UK if you can.
