Hi
It is entirely your decision if you want to appeal then you need to put in a MR explaining where you think you should have scored more
Without knowing the detail it is hard to say maybe get some advice from CAB or welfare rights -
I’ll look into it just don’t want to lose what I have
-
That's understandable will your condition remain the same or is it likely to get worse before your next review

Hi,No one on an internet forum can tell you whether you could score more points for a higher award or whether there's any risks to the award you already have. Whether you could score more points will totally depend on how your conditions affect you against the PIP descriptors.
