Hi @freebird1 welcome to the community, I have moved your post to the ask a benefits advisor category for you

Any condition has to be in place for three months before the benefit can be paid.

It sounds as though your further evidence has been accepted but confirming your condition was not in place prior to 3/8/2017. Before then they do not accept that your condition met the criteria for the enhanced award.
The DM has inreased your award but the increase will not come into payment until 3/11/2017

Hi freebird1,

This is just to confirm the answer given by CockneyRebel. The DWP are saying your condition got worse on 03/08/17, so with the three month required period, you are entitled to the increase from 03/11/17.
