On oxygen and CPAP Last PFT numbers were bad Wondering why they are taking so long to approve disability I can't work with SOB or stamina so low They just sent mail wanting to know about my headaches Really ? Who cares if my head hurts when I can't breathe? I have worked since the age of 13 and now that I can't anymore this is how I am treated It's a real slap in the face for me
You may want to find an attorney who can help you. I know that'll cost money, but you've waited a long time and maybe that would speed the process up.
The SSDI process is slower in some states than others. Even slower since Covid. No state is over 50% APPROVAL right off the bat! Your Lawyer's fees are capped to a certain amount so there's no rush for her to run them down to the Courthouse either.
But she should have read the Disability BLUE book by now. There are a lot of Clues in there about your medical status which could help your claim along. Certain things - like being hospitalized for COPD - are more important than the usual Stats. Here's a bedside copy of the "Rules of the road": https://www.ssa.gov/disability/professionals/bl...
be Well.
The rule is that you wait 2 years without working and always a attorney
I have a attorney Still been waiting almost 2 years
It took me 2 years with an attorney but I got mine but not without a fight
