Subject: Re: How did you get SSD?
We live in Texas....My husband was in the Army and for years my records were kept in order. I like you have had many surgeries, work-ups yada yada yada. When I went to my hearing I had a female Judge and some employment specialist(or what ever they are called). Oh, and of course my attourney and myself. It was pretty short about 15 minutes. About 2 months later(2 days before Christmas I found out I was approved) But, along with my adhesions I had other things as well that were well documented (depression, ovarian remnance disorder etc. etc.) I am not sure as to why some get it and some do not. I supose we need to get it out on the table and known that people do suffer from this and it's REAL.
