The criteria for PIP is totally different from DLA it only concentrates on how your disability affects your ability to carry out the descriptors laid out.
Sometimes despite your medical condition it does not always get you points towards your award -
Hi @Steph8674
We have lots of information about appealing a DWP decision here.
As @markyboy said, PIP is different to DLA - you might like to try a self PIP test to see how you could score.
