writing back to Sandy from C

[Guest guest]

Hi Sandy,

Yes it is criminal what they put people through. I am in the appeals

process of my denial letter, so I've got my paperwork cut out for me. I am going

to write those people in Virginia and tell them about all the errors that were

in my letter. My lawyer had given me false hope when he sent another letter to

me and told me we had other options after the judgement came through. A couple

of weeks later he then said there was nothing more he could do and that I was

better off fighting the rest of the way by myself on this part of it. So instead

of representing me, he dropped me in the last attempt to approve my case. First

he told me to write the letter, then he said don't pay special attention to

certain parts b/c thats sending a red flag for my case. He was talking out of

both sides of his mouth. Its not been fun I'll tell ya, but I'm still fighting

and I'm not done yet. Thanks for writing. Hugs back C

Dear Claudette,

I am so sorry. It's criminal to put people that are in so much pain through

so much. Then the work makes the flairs and other complications worse.

It makes me so furious. It's criminal!!! So much for social security!

Sleep apnea alone should be at least a 50% disability! Fibromyalgia at

least another 50%; Osteoarthritis another 50%; and your other symptoms

show that your body cannot handle any more than you have already!!

Keep on, don't give up!

Disability for fibro? Not In Southeastern Ohio!!!!!

fibro and while they all

said it, none of them backed me up on it, maybe GP, but even he said I could

still do sedentary

work, rheumatologist said its very hard to get fibro, so apparently she wasnt a

big supporter,

pain doctor told me upfront she wouldn't write me a letter of disability and the

old pain doctor,

well, she thinks physical therapy clears everything up.

it STILL doesnt work for me, not only fibro, but other stuff, DDD,

osteoarthritis in my spine, an

adrenal gland disorder, PCOS, diabetes, depression, heart irregularities, sleep

apnea, obesity

( I HATE that word)

when I didn't,

and made other errors, a key doctors reports were not in my file, lawyer was

mostly incompetent

and wasn't fighting for me, also said that the lawyers in Columbus are old and

don't believe in fibro,

its just a regular disaster.

twist and turn your

case so bad, you're in shock and disbelief when you read it and won't let you

have a freakin dime

of their precious money, 6 YEARS PEOPLE 6 YEARS. okay im getting off of my

podium, but c'mon

give me break I'm sure most of you can understand my anger. but don't worry Im

dealing and

finding ways to cope. I don't know what more I have to have to be considered

disabled--Oh yah

thats right, a doctor that will back me up and a lawyer that has a backbone. oh

and a judge that's

young and up on fibro and its devastation.

Great lawyer! Another thing is trying to do the paperwork

when you are in such pain and that's not all one must do!

Best,
