This is the guideline for doctors writing social security disability reports. You can check if your doctor's reports have enough detail for social security and, if not, ask them to add detail.

Social security is all done electronically now, so if you have paper documentation you want them to refer to, you need to specifically put a notation in the electronic file for those reports to be copied and forwarded to the appropreiate disability evaluation unit. Someone at social security told me this.
I think at this point there is a hold on all appeals other than hardship/emergency ones, so that is necessary to even get an appeal.
