Providing you have not reached State Retirement Age then you can still be awarded the Mobility component. When you notify the DWP of your worsened conditions, make sure that you send your letter by a Tracked post so that you have proof of delivery as this should set the date for any new award.

Although you say your condition is much worse you should go through the PIP Claim guide to make sure that you will score the points you need for an award. Also, this will result in a full review of your claim so you will need to defend your DAily Living award as well.
