I'm so sorry about your miscarriage. My heart goes out to you. I hope you start feeling better soon. As for the SSDI, my situation is similar to birchlakes. I was on temp disablitlity for 6 months then applied for SSDI and got it about three months later. I had a SSDI lawyer to help me decipher all the forms I had to fill out and the people at the social security office were also very nice and helpful. I am truly ill and I'm very grateful that I was awarded SSDI the first time I applied for it. I hope things work out for you too. My heartfelt thoughts are with you.
