Welcome to Neuro Talk. You will find some compassion and some good advise on this site. I really hope your hearing goes well. There are others on this site who have gone through the process for disability. I was turned down twice also, but in the end, I was granted my disability. I hope for the best possible outcome for you. There is also a disability forum that deals specifically with SSD, SSDI issues that you might want to look into. There may be others there, that can help while you wait for this hearing. Waiting is somtimes the hardest part to the whole process. take care, ginnie
