What about disability insurance that I have through work? Has anyone been successful in receiving group disability benefits? Is the process as difficult as it is for SS?

Thanks,

I have had nerve conductive tests (2), blood tests, MRI's, and various stuff during physical examinations such as reflex and vibration tests. No biopsys done, as he said its not necessary for him to make a diagnosis. Probably gonna hurt my disability case, but I'm going with legal counsel after my first denial.

I would try to file with your group policy. Does it cover disabilities not due to work? Might as well try.

Let me know how it goes David.
