Hi. As in my previous posts I have been diagnosed with PLS about a year. I have a lot of pain and about all the symptoms I see described in here. I have now been turned down for the second time for SSDI. They stated that they could see I could not do my current job or any other job I have been trained for. They did say that they felt I could do something less demanding. My background is retail management and construction with a HS education.
I am curious if anyone has been successful in receiving SSDI and what you feel might have been the deciding factor. Also how long it took to receive it. Just curious as to how it went for anyone else. This is very frustrating and I am sure others would find this info helpful also.
It is very depressing going through this as it is bad enough to be in this shape and it seems that a lot of people have no idea what we go through on a daily basis.
Thanks to all on this group for all the support you give and the positive thoughts each day. It really helps to hear from others going throough this.
Thanks for any input!
