Re: Has anyone here been acccepted for disability?

I was told many times to get a lawyer. I would recommend it. I did not follow that path and was turned down three times. I suppose that epilepsy is not a basis for ssd. I was told my seizures were not frequent enough. Oh really? Tell it to my brain.

After all the paperwork and evaluations, I was told I was denied because I could work two hours a week at a occupation I worked 15 years prior. Which included standing all day under flourescent lights (big no no), holding a knife all day and carrying heavy glass long distances.

So I did just that...and started having seizures again. Now what? I wish I would have gotten a lawyer from the very beginning, this has been three wasted years trying to move forward.

Get your lawyer, let him do the footwork, and best wishes. Keep us posted.
