I'm in the process of trying right now. I figure it can't hurt to try.

I'm not sure my husband will be supportive of this sadly....so I really gotta make sure I have my case planned out in my head before I bring it to him. He seems to think if I just get up and move it'll get better....and I tell him no amount of walking, running, working, standing...is going to make nerve damage go away and this is a permanent thing. *Sigh*

I am in the process of going through the approval process right now for SSI. I have been sent to their drs for physicals which left me feeling almost like I was exaggerating my symptoms. I had an EMG for neuropathy and was told it was not detected and is coming from my brain and that it would not heal until my brain fully heals which may or may not happen. All I know is that I really need help. I can’t survive with this pain and with no money besides what I get from social service. I’m praying for a miracle for all of us🙏🏽 Didn’t know neuropathy was considered a condition that was acceptable to use. Thanks for the info and please keep us posted on your journey

I have three doctors that do not want me working and l have not been working since January of 2020 and l am still fighting with disability to get approved to this very day. We are almost into 2023 and all l do is go to doctor on a weekly basis but disability feel l can go to work

I totally understand feeling like you're exaggerating. I feel like a cry baby most days. My husband just thinks I'm lazy, which is so hurtful. He's had chronic pain for years, after 13 knee surgeries....so in his brain, no one can hurt like he does.

I tried applying for disability for a year and half got nowhere. Could not get all the doctors to agree that it’s neoropothy. I gave up, that was using a specialized lawyer firm. The bottom of my feet is numb, can only stand to work 2 nights a week

I almost tried this. I heard disability benefits requires a disability hearing from a judge.

I have my doctor actually is the one the told me to apply for it and l have been fighting with disability since January of 2020 to get approved. My doctor is refusing me to go back to work because l work for the post office.
