Nothing surprises me about SS. I went through so much crap to get mine years ago. My papers ended up in another state, they didn't know they had sent me or a Physc. evaluation. I finally got a State Rep that got mine.

Mike is also right on watching what you do while trying to get it or even after. My neighbor got a letter a few months back that she was being taken off of hers at 54. She had to go back to her lawyer to fight them again. If anyone deserves her disability she does. I do about 2 hours of volenteer work at the vets home now and even that worries me to do. Makes you wonder if they think you will die and get off of it faster by sitting on your *** doing absolutely nothing but looking out of a window at home.

There doesn't seem to be much organization in the system. You hardly ever hear of any case that runs smoothly in fighting for it.
