Hello everyone,
I haven't been on in awhile and I will have to make this short...hurts to type. The TOS on my left side that I had surgery for 4 years ago has come back full force and also is now on my right. Things are getting worse each day. I am going to start trying to get disibility. I know I have a long road ahead, but I have to do something here. I'm located in Florida, so if anyone could help out with some advice, It would be great! Peggy

Peggy- I'm so sorry to here TOS has reared its ugly head again on you. Was this a work injury originally?

 Yeah, you need to consider your options and get some good advice from an attorney. Social security disability is challenging, but doable. It takes its toll on you. TOS is very difficult to live with. I'm so sorry it came back. Hang in there. It'll be okay.

Hi Peggy, sorry that your pain has returned. Yes, this is an indicator that it's time to do something - again.
It will take less of a toll on you if you start your SSD application with an attorney who specializes in SS. I used Binder and Binder, but there are several others out there. I started my process in FL, but had to move to GA due to divorce. Had I stayed in FL, the process would have taken 2 years or so. Mine ended up taking 4 years. (((((((hugs))))))) Anne
