Default Question about 6 question cdr form

Hello everybody, its been awhile since i have been around. I was on the old site but for some reason i had to re-register here? How did you all keep your handles from old site?


Okay i got a couple of questions and i know that somebody here will provide me with good answers, because i have always gotton good info from the board.

I just got my 6 question cdr in the mail today. My last cdr was the long one.
First my disability was based on neck surgery that i had, i have a cage in my neck. I also had some mental problems but for the most part its based on the neck.
In looking over the questions a few of them seem tricky or am just making them out to be tricky.
Question 5 asks if i have been to the doctor for treatment. Well as far as my neck surgeon, no i havent been to see him in awhile because he discharged me and said that there was nothing further he could do for me and that when the other discs in my neck get worse to come back and see him. On my last review he was actually the review doctor, because i asked ss to let my own doctor do it. He put in a great report about my condition.
Well since i dont see him anymore does this hurt my case with ss? A freind of mine today said, alot of people who get ssdi probably never go back to see their surgeons after they are done treating them. I just want to be sure thats true.
Now as far as other doctors i see my regular doctor all the time and i have visits with my psychiatrist who treats my mental problems {3 differnt meds} and also does pain management (more meds) for me every 2-3 months.
I also see my psychotherapist once a month. Iam going to list these visits on question 5, but was wondering since it wasnt my neck surgeon that i was seeing for the recent doctor visits, does this hurt me.
Question 4 asks if my health is better, same or worse. Well truthfully since my last review if you throw in more mental problems am having along with added diabetes and high blood pressure problems, my health is worse. But i dont want to check that box, if checking causes a full blown cdr. Not that am worried, i just dont want to go thru that whole process again if i can help it. I will just check same, if thats a better answer.
And my last question is at the bottom of the sheet there is a spot for remarks.
I wanted to just add the names of the doctors am seeing, since in question they just ask what you went to the doctor for and not who the doctors are.
I also wanted to add that i also have a appointment at the end of the month with my neck surgeon,{due to my neck becoming a little worse} and figured i would also write a message saying how he released me and thats why there hasnt been any recent visits to him.
Does adding these comments trigger the whole questionaire to get thrown out and sent for a full review? Cause i had read that this form is just scanned by a machine, so i dont want to fill it out wrong and cost me going thru the headache of the full review again, already have enough stress.
I know this was long, but i wanted to make sure i explained it good enough, so that somebody can help me with these questions. I have been a nervous wreck since opening the mail today, even thou i knew this day was coming again.
And by the way my age is 44 and i was approved on my first try without any lawyer.
Thanks for any help and good to see the board came back
Bobby
