Had an heart attack and stent fitted 8 years ago. I now have unstable angina . Other health conditions are prostate cancer and I am diabetic type 2 but no medication. Do I have grounds to claim DLA?. I get a pension which is above the threashold for ESA and JSA so cannot get benefits. I am 57 years old and not really fit to work, especially full time.

Only heart angina sectors may cause significant reduce in physical activity and work capability, but it should be verified by cardiologist, and it must be refracted to medical therapist you good health.
