I'm not going to continue to try to convince you of something you seem to not be open to, so best of luck to you.

Read this: http://www.nolo.com/legal-encycloped...-disorder.html ^^^Thank you for the link. I read it. I also read a link from off of it. No where could I find info about seeing a therapist weekly. Your Relationship With Your Doctor Social Security gives more weight to the opinion of a doctor who has treated you regularly for a long period of time, called a treating physician or doctor. You must show that you have an “ongoing treatment relationship” with a doctor for Social Security to consider that person to be your treating physician. An ongoing treatment relationship means that you have seen the doctor with a frequency that is consistent with the accepted practice for patients with your condition. For example, if you only see your neurologist twice a year for treatment of your MS, Social Security will still consider them to be your treating physician if it is common for patients with MS to be seen by a neurologist twice a year. http://www.nolo.com/legal-encycloped...lity-file.html Is it preferable to be at Step 5, rather than be denied at an earlier step? Sure, but Step 5 is by far the most complicated Step. SS routinely determines claimants can not perform prior work, but can perform other work. If you read the link I provided, it will explain some of it. Here it is again: http://www.socialsecurity.gov/oidap/...Evaluation.pdf ^^^For some reason the link above did not work for me. Thanks. |

I suggest you ask your attorney his opinion on if you need to see a therapist, and if so, how often. I'd really rather not comment further. Again, good luck. |

To get off 5th base - one has to have medical evidence/records that they cannot do 'meaningful gainful whatever' it is called work of ANY KIND. Correct? This means that they are so disabled that they can't even sit at a monitor or work a toll both or tell the gender of a chicken. They are in bad, bad shape. Correct? And, you think I am NOT in bad, bad shape. Therefore, I should quit my 'belly-aching' and get a job. Correct? That that is your opinion and I got the gist of this too long thread. Correct? Again, thank you for your concern and all the information you have shared. It has not been in vain as you seem to think it has. I have a document saved in Word called, "Lit Love" and many of the points that you have wisely brought up, I will discuss with my SSA attorney. Thank you and God bless. |

Did I miss something? How do you know you made it to Step 5? How do you know you were not at Step 2 when you hit the roadblock?
I guess I am in too much pain tonight to concentrate properly. Quote:

How do you know you made it to 5th base as you say? I feel like I was reading a book and skipped a few chapters. |

SS then would have ruled out that you qualified via the GRID Rules even though you are over the age of 50. When going through the 5 Step Sequential Process, they determined you could no longer perform your prior work (step 4) but could perform other work (step 5). |
