I just want to let those of you know where I am with my journey to get SSD. I was denied the fir4st try, but I appealed and on my appeal I wrote a nasty little note stating that the reason I was denied was BS. Obviously it must have hit s raw nerve as they have since had me do a completely new set of examinations both physical and psychological. As it happened the first time I had them all done in the summer when I always do better. This time I am doing it in the winter and I as a rule don't do so good. As was the case now! My physical examination was complete and thorough to the point where the Dr tried with all his might to force my knees to go backward and that hurt like hell. He did that twice and I yelled both times from pain! Then last week I did my psycho analysis and as luck would have it I was not having a good day, so they saw what I deal with regularly. Today I went and had a complete set of x-rays taken of my neck and knees and back. The tech was very thorough and made sure the pix were very clear for the radiologist! Now all I can do is wait and see what happens.God I need your prayers in what ever way you pray or remember someone please do it. My hands are numb just typing this so I cant feel the keys very much at all! I know there are manby more important crisis in the world than me getting SSD, but I would appreciate your support as I have had no electric power for a year now. I am not crying about it just tired of being a hobo ion my own home! Any questions please feel free to ask! Thanks to one and all for your support thro this trying time for me!
