Hi Debbie,

What is SM ?

With a few exceptions, it's not about having a certain diagnosis, it's about how that medical condition affects YOU.

My mom is disabled by her Parkinsons Disease. Michael J. Fox has Parkinsons and is starring in a new tv show. The same disease can present differently in different people.

How bad is your pain and where is it ?

Can you function reasonably if you eat every 2 hours ? The SSA may say that there are some jobs that could accommodate that.

What does your lawyer say about your chances ?

As Nicd mentioned, it is often a long process to try to get SSDI. Waiting is frustrating. Hang in there !
