Pip appeal

Hi, I was awarded pip last week, standard on both however I don't agree with the report, I need help getting in and out of the bath due to pain and balance but can slowly get in the car myself, they say this is the same movement but it's not, to get in the car I sit on the side of seat and slowly twist round to get in, no balancing on one leg or anything but I can't get in and out of the bath that way. They also said I don't forget to take medication often but I do. They also said because I eat everyday then I can manage a simple meal, I don't make those meals and feel though I haven't been listened to properly. Is it worth appealing or not. Thanks in advance for any advice x
