I am feeling much better today however last night was one of those nights where deep sleep wasn’t going to happen. My pain was like having a non-stop nightmare. I hope that tonight will be better. 
Judy…how is your appeal for disability going? Do you have an attorney? The best part of having an attorney was that he did most all of the leg work and knew how to present my case so that I would win. He also didn’t charge me for all he did for the three years he worked for me. I was turned down my fist try as most are. My appeal was a completely different picture. My attorney asked me what was really ailing me….first applied for just my back…then added my fibro, chronic pain and PTSD. When we finally got to the hearing, there present at the hearing was a psychologist and an Employment Specialist. They looked at my fibro and the PTSD as being more debilitating than just my back problems. I guess the combination of all was seriously looked at in making their decision to grant me with disability.
I hope things go well for you and don’t give up….
Oh, hello Doody so good to hear from you...hopefully we can get this thread to go...have a good one!!
