we currently get middle rate PIP for our 7 year old adopted daughter. She has just been assessed by the musculoskeletal team, due to my suspicions there wasn't something quite right with her legs. She's constantly falling over and coming over on her ankle. Her knee is turned inwards. Anyway they have said that she has one leg shorter than the other one, her knee is popping out and her hips. Also they said she is has hyper mobility and has a high arch. We have to go back for an xray on her hips and legs. Do we notify the DLA of her change, she can't walk very far and we have to avoid her running etc. thanks Sarah
