phoned and was told no mobility needs because if i feel dizzy i can sit down till it passes(!),and my mobility could be managed with a stick!.THE REPORT SENT CLEARLY STATES THAT I NEED TO USE 2 CRUTCHES!
Also only LOW care needs for help cooking/bathing because "you can use your aids to get in and out of chairs/up and down stairs etc".
woman on phone very helpful,sending their reasons to me and an appeal form.
They hadn't heard from my GP so took "independent" medical advice despite an ATOS report from April.It's official then....ATOS doctors can't be trusted with Inc.Ben medicals and DWP staff have to turn to unbiased doctors for advice!;)Every day above ground is a good one0
