Their was NO judge involved in my reconsideration appeal. They just sent it to another state to have their Social Security people their to look at my case. They sent me to a shrink and I won. They just changed the date. No biggy. I'll still get about 12K back pay. I just thank God I didn't have to go through the appeal in front of a ALJ and I have enough to live on. I'm singel and get $975 a month and the state is paying my Medicare premium ($115 a month) and get $200 a month food stamps. I'll be OK.
