Hi Jay-

My group disability does cover non-work related issues but I am not sure what the process is like and how it differs from SSDI.

I don't know anything about the process but it sounds like you have had enough tests done by your doctor. The only thing I would say is that the skin biopsy would be another piece that might be helpful? It is a very analytical test which simply counts the nerve fiber density. It is objective and by itself can indicated small fiber neuropathy which obviously causes lots of discomfort and disability.

Were you denied once already? And just curious about your age?

Take care,
David
