Just a quick note to new claimants or those with reviews.
I followed the excellent advice on this forum with both of my forms.
I can not stress how important it is to explain how you struggle and most importantly 'give real life examples' according to each descriptor.
On both new forms and my review I also added pin points that were relevant to myself and my different illnesses/diseases, and put them at the back of the form.
It's due to the wonderful advice and help on here that by doing this I have now been reviewed and given enhanced for both daily living and Mobility again.
So once again thanks everyone and scope....and remember to be as explanatory as possible, especially on the review...DO NOT WRITE "No Change". TREAT THE REVIEW AS YOU WOULD A NEW CLAIM and provide as much honest, relevant info as possible.
Best regards
