I have just received my DLA renewal forms which I now have to fill in. They awarded me low care put on appeal I received middle care. I am now worried that if I fill this in I may not get any. I am at the moment going through a tribunal which is on set 2nd I have a rep to come with me and they have submitted reasoning's for the tribunal but do I fill this in before I go to the tribunal or wait and see what happens on the 2nd sept . I was already confused I am more confused now x

This is such an hard question to answer , people really don't no the answer , I went from low care indefinite , to low care with a review in feb 2014 , then on appeal with cab high care indefinite , which means any day I can get a letter for another medical .

Good luck with your appeal .

My renewal is up in Dec I am at the tribunal for the mobility on the grounds that the doctor from Atos who came to the house did not look at my walking properly as I have to hold onto my stick as well as the wall or husband to keep my balance my gp had put on my medical that I have a very unstable Balance and that I ca not even pick my feet off the floor I drag my left leg . I am not steady on my legs at all and I have gone down hill over the past 12 months I have been waiting for this tribunal since last September so I m now wondering which way it will go. Xx

Hi cuddly,

You are correct there are no simple answers to the question. I am now just going to go with my rep I have and let him do the work for me the submission that has put in has picked up on afew things so i will have to keep my fingers crossed if I could xx
