Thanks! My husband had a brain tumor removed from his temporal lobe a few yrs ago.Ever since the surgery he suffered from Temporal lobe seizures, but they were only once or twice a month. About 1 1/2 ago the seizures became a weekly thing. Then 3-4 seizures a week. He saw many top Neurologists and surgeons, they all picked up the seizures on EEG's and said this might be because of the scar tissue from surgery. My husbands primary doc did write a letter stating my husband should be on disability and is not able to work.

What worries me is that SSA cancelled the mental exam. And I still dont understand what - Presumptive Disability is?

Any info helps!

You never know for sure until you get that approval letter
