I am now getting info together for the appeal. I have had my reconsideration result I and it still states the standard rate for the daily living and mobility. I pointed out to them about the report that it states SHE used her inhaler and the part that states SHE was observed to walk 30 metres at great pace there was also a whole page of exercises that was supposed to have taken place. I am not female and don't use an inhaler, I was told I didn't need to do the walking test as she can see there is no need we're her words.i wear a leg and foot brace for my drop foot which means I can hardly walk 20 metres and certainly not at any pace.i have now been medically retired by my employers .i have to also use a zimmer to get about my house for my own safety, also due to go in to hospital any day for 2 knee replacements and doctors tell me it will take at least 24 months for me to have some recovery as I have zero mobilty due to fact that I have no muscle tissue left in legs due to the 4 oprations I had done to my spine.

The issues you highlight in your post certainly show the report to be sub standard but don't lose track of the fact that the appeal panel can only find in your favour by your showing that you score the points needed for an award, so this must be your priority.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
