Hi i been reading and a member of it the forum for some years now but with looking after my husband who has Parkinson's now i don't very often get to see the site no days.
Now i been waiting for my renewal papers to come as i am on (H M) and (M C) for fibromyalgia and lots of other stuff, i have just got what i thought were my renewal papers but No its a fresh claim pack and letter say if i was to re apply i can.
i have look at the guild for filling in paper work i will do my best but i really want to see if i can get my renewal with out having to go to an appeal as i have had to 3 times now.
as i no longer have hospital appointments any more an my doctor is leaving in December i really worried about the renewal.

I am concerned that the letter talks about you applying again rather than renewing so I would recommend that you contact the DLA Unit to find out what is going on, especially as it is now too late to make a new claim for DLA.
The fact that you are no longer attending the hospital is not necessarily a problem, many patients are "parked" by the NHS when there is no practical treatment for their condition other than the medication that they are currently taking.
Include the medical evidence that you have, explain that your conditions are the same or worse, assuming that is the case, and you your care and mobility needs in detail.
