I can't tell you for sure if you will win right away, did you write the complaint yourself? Having MS is a very serious illness. If you have the doctors reports and are taking all the medications then hopefully you will get approved. The rule usually is if you can' walk, stand, sit, or think for more than a minimal amount of time, then you deserve benefits. Not using your walker all the time should not become a factor in determining your case. Please read below for further information..
If you filed back in August then you should hear from the agency soon. Please let us know what happens we all care and want to give you all the support we can.
