Hi and welcome kathleen
Only you know whether you should appeal the decision, if you believe that you meet the criteria then maybe it is not your evince that has let you down but the way you have presented it.
You don't say whether you have already had an MR but this is the first stage of appeal.
Have you asked for a copy of the HCP report ? you will need this to be able to contest the findings of the assessment.

Hi @kathleen59 welcome to the community
You can do a PIP self test here to see how you could score.
If you want to appeal then take a look at this info on appealing a PIP decision.Scope
