Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I'm new to this group. I was diagnosed with RA and Fibro. 3 years ago. My disease has progressed rapidly and when I saw my Dr. yesterday she suggested I think about applying for dissability benefits. I am only able to work around 4 hours a day before my pain level is intolerable. I had to go from a 40hr a week job to working 2- 4 hours a day at a different job and still I have a hard time with it. Can anyone give me any advice on the process of filing for disability? Were you able to work at all while recieving benefits? I am a volunteer EMT for my town and while i only get called out once in a while Id like to be able to keep that up. It's one of the few things I do that I truly enjoy doing despite the pain. Thank you in advance for any information you can share with me.
