Update
Applied for SSDI the first week in June, online. Was followed up by a phone interview w/ them on June 13. Two of my doctors have written helpful letters to SSDI.
Since then, I had an appointment with an MS specialist in Kansas City. She thinks that I likely do not have MS; that it might be CNS Lupus, which is also a dx that Mayo Clinic considered back in 2002.
I have a follow-up appointment with her next week, during which time she will compare old test results with recent tests, and try to come up with a dx.
I worry that a possible change in dx may delay or jeopardize my claim.
If I've posted this on another thread, I apologize for the repeat.
