Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 I can't tell you about the examines. Why do you need to have separate exams just for SSD? Is that something new? When I applied in 1998 they just went on my history of doctor notes, labs, and xrays. Luckily, my doctors were in my corner. BTW, I was 23 and received disability on my first filing...without lawyers or extra doctor visits. I am not qualified to say if I feel you will receive the benefits but I wish you luck. Shandi [ ] OT-I have a Doctors Appointment for SSD and a Mental Examination I have a doctors appointment on January 29th for a medical exam for SSD, and I also have a mental evaluation scheduled for Feb 9th for SSD. Can anyone tell me what to expect and what step I might be on in trying to receive disability. I am hopefull, but have some doubts because this is my first time filing for disability. I am 27 and fear that will work against me. Any advice? Thanks everyone! ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Any questions?

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 They are having me do the examinations because I haven't had my diagnosis for at least 2 yet even though I have had problems for 4 years. But thank you--it does give me hope to know that it is possible to be approved. Thanks! " S. Pruitt " <seriouslysanibel@...> wrote: I can't tell you about the examines.
