Hello everyone, I joined this site yesterday. I've got all my conditions and meds listed in my signature, so I won't put them in again. I'm going through my reconsideration of SSDI appeal. Had the appt on tuesday and my attorney thinks it went well since the judge ended the meeting early and didn't ask the vocational expert anything. I didn't get a chance to read the 4 pages of stuff I had prepared, or go over my meds because the judge said he had enough evidence to make his decision. So now I'm waiting and hoping for the best. I've been retired since 2007 on disability pension, but I really need the medicare and SSD as well. I'm 43, and I was hurt in a body surfing accident at 38. Worked 2 years with the back and neck pain until I started getting migraines and just couldn't do it with the migraines on top of everything else. I only wish I had found this site earlier when I was preparing for my reconsideration hearing. Anyway, from the day I spent surfing the site you all seem like nice, decent people.
