  1. how long does it take to go to the upper tribunal? i waited 11 months for this already
  2. They basicaly said all of my evidence was after the original decision was made and therefore it was not to be accepted they said if were to re apply today i could use my current evidence but could not use it for this current claim. i did not sent any of my own evidence at 1st as i thought the dwp would ask my gp for it themselves as they ask in the claim form to give your gp's details but they didn't do this. i arrived in a wheel chair and showed them my letter stating i was waiting for a hip replacement which is due to the same condition i applied for in the original claim but again they said it was dated after the original claim and not relevant i can maby understand the letter which says im awaiting a hip replacement as it was dated 5 months after but the letter from my gp which states im in pain at all times when walking was only 16 days after the original decision surely that is more relevant than a esa report that was 12 months old at the time! They also said that i should not need as much time to get in and out of the bed and bath as i stated in my claim form which was 30 minutes, i explained that this was because it is so painfull it takes several attemps to get in and our of bed i have to stop due to the pain then try again later and they said that if i had to stop due to pain and try again that the time i stopped shold not be counted as you are not reviving help in the time and that the time counted should start when you attempt the task again. i argued that i still needed somebody to wait with me before i attempted it again but they just moved onto the next questions.
  3. I lost my DLA tribunal today I have chronic arthritis in my hips and awaiting a hip replacement i told them i could not take a single step without sever pain and had a report from my gp which stated i could not walk any distance at all without pain but they said this report was dated 16 days after the decision was made on my claim and that it would not be accepted because it was not related to the time of the claim! instead they choose to use evidence from a 2 year old esa medical which stated i could walk over 100 meter's!! so a 2 year old medical is more relevant than a 2 week late one? im totally gutted i cant think straight at the moment i dont know what to do!
