Default I was approved for SSDI !!!!!

I absolutely cannot believe it ! I have such bad luck I just knew they would deny my reconsideration.

I had my local Congressman's office involved and I think that really helped my case.

I still have some guilt going on in accepting the SSDI.....I know I deserve it...I've worked and had SS paid in since I was 15....I'm now 51. I know I'm unable to work 8 hours a day/40 hours a week.

I'm 9 months in to severe small fiber neuropathy, hands, feet, upper right arm....and I know the journey to get some daily quality of life back is a very long road.

It took me 8 1/2 months.....1st claim was denied in July 2013.....entered reconsideration end of Sept 2013 and was just approved.

From reading posts on here I know how VERY lucky I am to have gotten this in 8 1/2 months. I did not expect an approval and was already looking at ss lawyers I would need to file for the next phase.....which is a hearing before a judge (in GA).

I won't be leaving this forum.......such great people with so much knowledge and ones who need support from all of us.

Just wanted to share the good news and to tell you all to keep fighting !
