Hello weemarydoll and welcome
Was this a review or a change from DLA ?
As you have no award in payment you can re-apply straight away, there is no waiting time
It is important to understand understand the points system, descriptors and the criteria for an award. A good place to start is the self test on the B&W site
http://www.mybenefitsandwork.co.uk/pip/indexxx.php
There is also a lot of info on this site. Please have a look around and come back with any questions

@weemarydoll
You can ask the tribunal for a statement of reasons (SOR) for their decision. There is a remote chance, but only remote, that the judge made an error of law in which case you could appeal to an upper tribunal. You would need expert advice to decide if the SOR indicated an error of law, for example from CAB or similar organisation. Or you could ask a benefits expert in Ask a benefits advisor category in the Scope online community.1 -

Benefits experts in Ask a benefits advisor category on Scope have stated that it is rare for a first tier tribunal judge to make an error of law.0 -
The biggest problem with challenging a FTT is lack of access to advisors that understand the law at an affordable price.
For most people in our situations it is far less stressful and more practical, to take what they have learned and re apply

Most CAB's are overwhelmed and often cannot see people within the time frames set by DWP.
Many people turn to on line forums for advice which in some cases is less than helpful.
Even here we lack specialist help and knowledge, like yours, for the majority of the time
