Would an MR trigger a new claim?

Due to the recent changes in mobility I have been sent a letter from dwp saying that i am still on 4 points . I think I should be on 8. Can i ask for a mandatory review and if i can will they look at the whole claim again as i have heard of cases where people have lost other part of pip benefit. Mt assessment was in September 2016. Just wondering if anyone had any advice .

Have you spoken to CAB. They can help with benefit enquiries. Benefits are complex and confusing.
