I'm 45, and I'm on top daily rate of pip, and standard mobile rate.
I was hospital from 31 October to 27th December as I had t1rf and influenza a
I had 10 points on mobility for mental health and I now use crutches to walk so I was thinking I should apply for higher mobility?

Hey there @Unwellman and a warm welcome to the community. 😊
If you believe that you could score more points to get higher rate mobility, then you can always put in a change of circumstances, which will usually trigger a new assessment. But please be warned that both elements of your award would be reassessed, so you could end up losing money if they decide to only award you standard rate daily.
