SSDI Phone Interview on Monday

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Monday morning I have my phone interview with the SSDI. Can

anyone tell me what to expect? I'd like to be as well prepared as

I can be, so I don't say anything that would hurt my application.

My disability is based on the following causes: Chronic Calicific

Pancreatitis with Pancreatic Pseudocysts and Malnutrition,

Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus Type I with Hypoglycemia

and Hyperglycemia, Diabetic Ketoacidosis and Malnutrition and

Osteopenia.

I have the lab work, hospital reports, doctor's diagnosis' and

CT-films to support and substantiate all claims....over 200 pages

of documentation.....LOL!, and a comprehensive letter from my GI

saying why he feels I am entitled to benefits

I know several of you have already gone through this, so I'd

appreciate any tips anyone can offer. I'm not good at responding

well to " unexpected " questions, so if there are any of those,

please let me know.

Thanks for any forthcoming help.

With hope and prayers,

Heidi
