I don't usually post on this forum, because I have MS, not RSD. But, I saw your thread, and it gave me hope. I am currently in the process of applying for disability. Submitted my online application the first week of June, and had a phone interview June 13.

I am also not using an attorney. I have the support of my doctors. I am hopeful, but cautious. Don't want to get my hopes up too high, because I know that most people are denied on first application, and on appeal, and it ends up going to court. Will get an attorney if it goes that far.

Congratulations!
