I'm sorry, I don't remember your previous messages to know what your condition is, so my reply is fairly general.

If you want to appeal your DLA, you need a form GL24 (which you can get from a Jobcentre) and you must appeal within a month of the date of the decision letter.

Don't worry if you don't have a consultant or physio. See your GP and see what evidence he can give you. You may have to pay for this.

Also, you can use evidence from others, such as relatives, friends, neighbours, colleagues, fellow support-group members etc.

Take a look at our guide to claiming DLA, then work carefully through what your needs are. Who's best to give evidence of them? It may be that one person knows best your needs in relation to one thing and another knows best your needs in relation to another.

If you feel that your medical diagnosis is important evidence and you don't feel that the help your GP can give you is enough, you could see a doctor privately, but don't forget that that might cost quite a bit.

Do lateral thinking about who could give you written evidence. What do you do outside the home that shows how limited your movement is and by inference how much difficulty you would have with looking after yourself. Do you have problems getting washed and dressed that would be evident to people that regularly meet you, such as neighbours or someone at your place of worship etc?

Is there anywhere locally you could get some face-to-face advice so that someone could go through each condition with you and how it impacts on your ability to do things and what difference some care would make?

:) I suspect looking at what your problems are and other recent posts IMO they are not waiting till 2014 to start cutting 20% of people getting DLA
