Hi all,
Unless it has changed in last couple of years, getting someone on
disability is not as easy as you may think.
It takes a paper trail with creditable medical evidence that has to show
proof that test , treatment, and types of medicine that you have been on .
Then you have to go to your pharmacy and get a print out for at least a year
to
show you have been taking it. Don't tell me you can't afford it and give
up ,Years ago before Medicare started helping, I was working through the
RXcompanies helping the honest people get their medicine..
You show a 10 year working history and people don't realize how
important this is. It could be very strong evidence on your case.
Let me try to clear up some of the things that people believe. Till about
1995 anyone who had the above evidence for alcohol, or drug use and could not
function did get on SSD . . New laws were passed and really shook up the
way people could get on. No longer could they receive a monthly check.
Their
cases were looked up and evidence gathered and hundreds lost their funds.
They have to show a primary illness that would meet the laws, and then the
alcohol / drugs might be on the application, It is true that a ( pickled
liver ) that show advanced stages might win.
Now about fat people......Their weight is a issue, but there is so much
more. How do they walk, breath ( sleep study ) , take care of their body.
ride, grocery shop, and take care of their homes and family. They often get
terrible rashes that leak fluid, and causes pain.
When you go before the administration law judge and the independent work
specialist you have to prove that the clients chart is complete of all
evidence . You question the client about the medical history and then the
work
history. I would have always made contact with the employer and would have
testimony that show about their job history and what it entailed. Then the
specialist would speak to the judges about his questions, and then I could go
on
and on, but I got off track so forgive my visit to the after years.
