Welfare rights teams which you should be able to find on your local council's website should be able to help.
If there is an error on the doctors report I would guess that it is worth asking for a review if you put in further supporting evidence.One day I might be more organised...........

go to appeal, when you do this they review anyway, then decide if you need to appeal or not,
good luck with it all0 -
