Hi Bunz,

Have you seen all of the medical records ? Assuming your government looks for the same issues ours does, it's not just having documentation....it's having the RIGHT documentation.

My earlier neurologist notes summarized my situation with statements like "patient is totally disabled due to TOS, RSD, FM, and occipital neuralgia." That is insufficient. Some people with the same/similar conditions might still be able to work. WHY I can't work is what they want to hear....not a list of diagnoses, but details like.......

*needs to lay down frequently to utilize cervical traction unit
*able to stand/walk for up to 20 minutes at times, but must be able to sit or lay down on demand
*able to sit for up to one hour at a time in specific high backed chairs with arm support, but must be able to get in supine postion on demand
*requires frequent naps d/t poor nighttime sleeping
etc, etc
