Re: Sue or Anyone that won SSI Disability claim

January 22, 2009

Hey Sue, and anyone else that has successfully won SS Disability case, what

may I ask, was your main health diagnosis' that you won with on your

disability claim? I am 5yrs into the process. Allsup is helping me, and I

m waiting to find out if my hearing is going to happen or not, but when

there are so many things wrong with you, and the mold issue is so

controversial, it's hard to know which diagnosis to use. Does anyone mind

sharing, if your disability was due to health issues caused by mold, and you

won your SS Disability case, please share what your main diagnosis or a

couple of main diagnosis were? Thank you.

The chemical sensitivities and the memory loss. I failed the neuropsych

test. It was hrs. long and I was in tears twice. I am a former teacher and felt

like an idiot!!! It was frightening to me to realize how much I couldn't do.

I'd go with the memory loss, pain, chronic fatigue, and MCS. I could dig out

my old forms and talk to you more about it.

There is a good graphic in the US Army Blue Book (I think)

or perhaps the Wannemacher RAND study

that shows how trichothecene mycotoxins

lead to multi-system collapse and

(their words) " metabolic chaos " ..

and then death

That kind of multi-system destruction is exactly what happens..

Dr. Croft points out that many symptoms mimic radiation poisoning (radiomimetic)

I'll look tonight to see what I can find.

Sue

Thank you Sue, I appreciate your help. I know it could be hard re-visiting

those things, so if it's too much for you, please don't. If you have the

forms handy and it would do you some good to talk about it, or help someone

else, I'd love to talk. You can email me off board so we don't clog it up.

Angie: I have not gone through the process personally yet but I have

met many people here that have applied for SSI and used Fibromyalgia

as a diagnosis. These are mold-injured people that were denied with

that diagnosis because as you said, its so controversial. So,

apparently SSI acknowledges fibromyalgia and that is the way to go.

Most mold-injured people have that as well so there is nothing

dishonest about it, just makes the process less complicated. D

Thanks again for the advice. I do have all of those things. It's the age

part that scares me. I'm only 35. I became disabled at 28 and applied for

SSI, but got discouraged doing it on my own. After my first denial I quit.

I restarted 5 yrs ago. Allsup told me that my age is counted against me

because they think I'm too young to become disabled, and I have a better

chance for recovery. HAH! I am not applying for retirement! I didn't know

that you had a certain age requirement for becoming disabled. I could have

been in a car accident at the age of 18. I could've had a heart attack at

25. What the???? ISN'T THAT DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THE DISABLED? If my

doctors know I'm disabled, and I can get a Handicap Placard, who are they to

say I'm not disabled? Tell that to my Managers of my last 3 jobs I failed to

be able to keep. Tell that to my poor children who have lost out on having

a Mother that can bike ride with them or sled ride, or even just roll around

play wresting or tickling. Ask them if they think their Mommy can work. If

I miss out on these precious things in life, why would holding a job be any

different? Who are these idiots??? I know I'm not saying anything that you

all don't know, I'm just venting, but my gosh. The whole system that was

designed to keep newly disabled people from losing their quality of life and

their homes has failed most of the people that it was designed to help. I,

as many of you, have already lost everything. Now due to the design of our

disability, being the mold issue, I have lost everything twice. Fortunately

we were renting the house that made us sick, but we left that house (and

everything in it) and bought our own. Due to never bouncing back from

losing everything in our moldy house, and mounting medical bills (not to

mention loss of my income) we couldn't afford to keep our house so we lost

that one also. So in less than 4 years, we lost all of our belongings once

and 2 different homes. We would have never lost our new home if my claim

for SSI had been approved the 1st, 2nd, or even the 3rd time I applied. How

many times should you have to be denied before they finally believe you? I

know they have to be careful about fraud, but come on! Why make the truly

disabled pay for the mistakes of criminals. If they get caught, they go to

jail. That's their punishment. Why should the punishment trickle down to

the innocent and those whose lives already make them feel like they're

living in a prison. We're already suffering and due to their not having a

proper way to manage their program, we're being penalized for the few that

abuse the system. None of that is our fault. If they really want to make

the program do what it was meant to do, they should believe our physicians

(if not us) and approve us, then continue the investigation if they want to.

Give us truly disabled the relief that we need, then make us pay it back if

they find any true proof of fraudulence.

We all need to stand up and fight this injustice! But how? Most of us

would march on Washington and crusade for reform, but we can't. Even if we

could push through our illness, we can't afford to travel there to do it,

thanks to the " Powers that be. " So it just goes on and on forever? Talk

about not fair! I know that despite the fact that there is no cure for our

illness, there are treatments that can make it more bearable, but insurance

won't pay for most of them and we can't afford to pay for them without

Disability. So they actually keep us disabled. Some of us could actually

return to some type of work (maybe only part time, but still) if we had SSI

to pay for certain treatments.

And the economy of this nation has taken a big hit by all of the mold

victims that have had to foreclose on their homes. That trickles down. It

affects the banks, their employees, businesses that would be shopped,

physicians that would make more money from treatments that we could afford,

and the entire nation would be better for it if we had the money we needed

being circulated in our economy. If they started approving the claims of

all of the people they've denied 3 or more times, it would make a nice

difference in the amount of money being circulated. It's a win win for

everyone. There would be less depression and more people getting the

expensive treatments that they need, and a more likely possibility that some

(not all) people would rehabilitate faster and maybe be able to eventually

come off of SSI. They look at it as a risk, but as we all know, it's

actually a better solution to many different problems. Problems that do not

just effect us, but our whole nation. If we, with our memory problems and

brain fog can figure this out, what's their excuse for not being able to see

it? These are our highly educated and " intelligent " federal employees and

politicians we are supposed to trust. And they wonder why so few people

vote.

So Sue, if you have anything else you think might help, email me. I'd love

to hear from you. If anyone else has an idea of what might work, I'm at a

crucial stage in the process right now and could use all of the help I can

get, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you.

Angie

Yes D, thank you for that. I actually have Fibromyalgia listed as my main

diagnosis and I'm still waiting. It is good though to hear that some people

have been approved with that diagnosis. Maybe I will. I appreciate the

reply. Unfortunately, out of about 8-10 people I've met, here in my life,

that have applied for SSI with Fibro, only 1 has been approved. So needless

to say I have been getting pretty discouraged. But if you know some that

are getting approved, that's encouraging. Maybe the new influx of Fibro

cases are finally making them start to look a little closer at these cases.

I hope so.

Thanks again.

Angie

i am right there beside you as I am fight WC, SSD and the companies LTD. The

1st SSD claim was denied although the did recognize the illness but did not find

it to be diabilating...if they could just see us on a day to day basis,

sometimes hour to hour, minute by minute...I call mine windows...how i feel. I

am now on claim, which shows me geting worse...I did not have pain in the

beginning. I have been in severe pain since Jan 08due to the severe bloating

from a candida infection...left my pelvic nerves fried...I can not sit for very

long...PA has increased pain med for pain management...now SSD wants me to see a

Psychology Consultant...I am not wure but I do believe that the medidical model

does not just give out medications just because you " think " you are sick! Good

luck in your fight I do know that one day....well I can only hope!

God Bless
