Congratulations to you. It is all a bit confusing isn't it? I am a nurse who is currently on temporary disability and have been out of work since July due to MG. I was diagnosed via a tensilon test and am seronegative. I mainly have difficulty with my vision, neck, and speaking at this time. I am on mestinon which has helped with generalized weakness, but as you all know every day is different and you don't know what tomorrow will bring.
Does anyone know if you can collect a pension while on temporary disability? I think I am going to have to retire. I am 60 years old and not eligible for SS yet.
I also have an autoimmune disease called primary biliary cirrhosis and recurrent uveitis that has left me with a shower of floaters in one eye further affecting my vision.
Again, I am happy to hear of your positive SS outcome.
