Default Hi Gruvingal
When I had my evaluation, I looked him right in the eye and answered the truth. I was down, angry, hurt, going from one surgery to the next. I was glad to have the opportunity to tell the psych just what happened to me. It was a relief more than anything. The process can be a very long time in coming, so look at it as an opportunity. Don't be afraid to tell the truth. I think that gets you in the right direction. ginnie

they send you a decision in writing in which the administrative law judge explains the reasons for their decision.

Default Hi Jinja
In my case there were four separate medical conditions, that taken as the whole did disable me. Mostly it was my cervical spine, and degenerative joint disease. ginnie
