The first think you should do is review our PIP Claim guide, whilst a deterioration may mean more points this does not always result in a higher award, so can you reasonably see where you would score the extra points for a higher award?

If you can then write to the DWP office dealing with your claim explaining how your conditions have changed and asking to be reassessed. If you can send the letter by a Tracked post so you have proof of delivery.

Reporting a change will result in a full reassessment of your claim, a new PIP2 and almost certainly a face to face assessment. the new Decision will supersede your existing award, whatever it might be.
