It took 2 years: I got denied the first time then hired a SS Atorney and got the decision ,fully favorable, 3 weeks ago. When you hire a SS Attorney you do not have to pay them any money up front the SS Administration pays them out of your settlement and if you loose so do they. l had quite a medical history from my inquiry to getting the RSD. Also my doctors where extremely supportive and coorporated with whatever had to be done. I also had to leave a very good career that I worked very hard to build for years, which I loved and missed terriibly, so I had alot of SS$ built up. It does matter how much you have worked and made throughout your working career, why I don't know.
It does happen but patience is the word I had to remember every day.
Good Luck,,
