Subject: Re: DLA
Hi Pat Congratulations! I've had RA for 2 years now...... I have been awarded the lower care and no mobility which is annoying me as it was the mobility I wanted the help with more than anything as i don't drive and have to use taxi's and buses to get about one the days I can't walk far. I phoned and asked for a review but they have upheld their decision...... What did you put down to get them to recognise your need? I said I couldn't use a crutch/walking stick because my hands were too sore and that I could only walk 8-10 car lengths before needing to stop and rest......... I'm really puzzled by the whole thing and thinking I'll have to get a letter from my GP or consultant or something..... Can you help me at all? Thanks loads Lisa x
