I spent 5.5 Years the first time I applied (for Neuropathy) via an Attorney. Denied, Denied, Denied and then in front of some psychological nutcase Administrated Law Judge Denied AGAIN!!! That SOB even told the Clerk to stop recording and then went off on some tirade about his father drinking himself to death and basically blamed Me for it!?!? My Lawyer and I are looking at each other going WTF ?
The Lawyer told Me that We could either file a Lawsuit against the fedgov for $5,000.00 out of My pocket and never win or Refile and try again.
So we refile. Six months later I get SSDI for A-Fib... Huh?! What?!? Okay whatever.
So that’s My expirence with it.
I know several people who have been on it for years. None should be on it. They are in better shape than me. One went on a 5K and I have to decide if it’s worth hobbling to the bathroom.
Anyone who can write an articulate comment on FR is clearly not disabled and not deserving of dependency on us taxpayers.
There are plenty of desk jobs where the only requirement is the ability to read and type.
