If given the option not sure what to do. Pain for now is under control. Problems sleeping though. That weird gear like bone rubbing on bone which started a week ago. Have been off 3 months and long term disability kicks in at 6 months. So 3 more months for that. No ideal how long it would take for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) would take. So afraid if I go back I will have to start from scratch... Life would be easier if I could go back due to insurance for my family. Otherwise will have apply for Obama Care. So many decisions and all are a gamble not knowing how quick this will progress. If it doesn't get any worse I will be the luckiest woman on earth. RSD since Oct 4th,2013 surgery. Hand very stiff when I wake. My left hand occasionally feels stiff lately when I wake.
