Social Sec.'s first decision on me was a joke. Then at my appeals hearing, despite the fact that I had to stop lifting a paper cup of water (hand overuse) and couldn't get up easily out of my chair to walk, the dr. there said I could stand 8 hours and sit for 4, etc. (Don't react to these comments, btw. Let your attorney handle it.)

You must appeal or have another hearing until the full extent of the disability in your case is properly described and acknowledged. Even though I usually (before TOS) could have done an SS hearing in my sleep, I HAD to hire an SS atty. to properly question the SS "experts" and present all of the med reports that I did obtain along the way.

I don't know what your SS status is, but it is so important to stress the neurological aspects of TOS in tiredness, memory, decision-making, etc. Again, I don't knwo your status, but just in general, I don't want anyone to give up.

Best wishes.
