PIP to ADP triggered by Change in Circumstance

My husband who suffers from severe mental health issues, as the result of the long term effects of a TBI (age 17 - now 56), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (this diagnosis triggered the change in circumstances, leading to move from PIP to ADP) and Autism (only recently diagnosed). He currently has enhanced rate Daily Living and standard rate Mobility (10points). The CFS means that he's bed bound for most of the week. Are there any guides or articles here on the Benefits and Work website that you can direct me to, to help me complete the change in circumstance form to ensure I'm phrasing the difficulties he has in a way that is recognised by social security scotland to improve his chances of recieving enhanced rate mobility. To be honest I think he should have been getting enhance mobility already, but I'm hopeful that the confirmed diagnosis of CFS and Autism will be sufficient to back up my description of the difficulties he has in resepect to planning and following journeys and moving around but I'm aware that as this is a form there will be particular phrases that they are looking for. Many thanks Lynda
