Re: Has anyone here been acccepted for disability?

If you are blind or have a terminal disease you won't have to see SS doctors. But I had to see SS doctors (2) I think it was, to confirm my doctor's diagnosis concerning my back and neck pain. If you have multiple disorders you may not have to see another Dr at all. Just get yourself a lawyer who specializes in disability cases. I tried to get approved for disability with someone who was not a lawyer but use to work for SS. In 2 years she could not get me approved and recommended I go to a lawyer. I did, they said, "Let us look over your case and we will let you know if we will take it." They took my case and I won in less than a year. You see they won't take your case unless they feel they will win. That is one way to find out early how good your chances are. Get your medical records together and go for it, the worst that could happen is being turned down. But from what you say I don't think you will be refused. Good luck...
