[email protected], Welcome to the community. Are you on DLA or PIP? If you're on DLA and you ring DWP to say your condition has changed with the new diagnosis and your needs are greater you'll be told to apply for PIP. Have a look at the criteria and descriptors and you'll get an idea of your chances to increase your benefit. If you post again in the ask a benefit adviser section someone will be along to help.

Hi @Jordan
Welcome to the community. Just to add to @wildlife's comment - you can do a test here to see if you might be eligible for PIP (and if you might get an increase).
