Wink MG and Disability?

I would appreciate hearing form others how they handled their life when/if MG finally was bad enough that they could not do a days work and had to turn to some form of disability?
My symptoms seem to worsen as day progresses and many days after lunch I really struggle to perform my job as good as it needs to be done. I think if this trend continues I may need to know what options I may have and would like others that have went the route to chip in with news - good or bad?
Unfortunately I work for a college and have for 9 years - I do have a private policy that would pay 66% of my wages for many years, but since I have not paid into SS for 9 years I read on a SS form that you had to pay into it the "previous" 2 years to qualify? I have got 30 credit years into SS so its not like I have not contributed - just not sure I might qualify?
I appreciate any inputs - thanks!
Randy
