Waiting for tribunal date, been refused mobility component because health professional said that i was not on certain medications so can not be in as much pain as was said. Have now had some medication changes of which a couple of them are what health professional mentioned in her report. Should i go back to DWP and ask for a reconsideration again even though it has been to Mandatory reconsideration or should i take another route
The change in medication cannot be considered by either the DWP or your Tribunal panel, they can on look at your situation as it was on the date of the Decision that you are appealing.
You could report a Change of Circumstances but that will result in a new PIP2 being issued and almost certainly a face to face assessment. The new Decision will supersede your existing award whatever it is or might be following the appeal.
