Re: Seeing Disability Judge Jan 15th

[Guest guest]

Dear fibro friends,

I've been with this list for over 3 years now, I think -

anyway, after a L O N G wait, my Disability appearance

before a judge is Jan 15th.

I know about the wonderful website immunesupport.com,

which offers much advice re: obtaining Disability.

I would appreciate one sentence of advice from each of you if you think you

know of something that might help me.

I don't plan on being an " actress " and acting like someone who is hardly

alive, if you know what I mean...

It's just so hard - they have told me I could be a secretary and/or a sales

clerk. At $6 an hr., I would have to work

20 hours a week to make the $500 which SS feels is " substantial "

(enough...???!) At $7, I would need to work 18 hours a week. They could

even tell me, " ... well, @

2 1/2 hrs per day you could do it.~ "

I have listed the following reasons: FMS MPS RLS

CFIDS and depression.

Depression is the tricky one, as I don't " act " depressed.

I just don't ever leave the house LOL! I take morphine for pain, but

they'll just say I'm " managing " my pain, so get on with it!

Thanks if you can help , Colette
