Guest guest Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Hello everyone I work in an office where our Chief Medical Officer is a cardiologist. He was out of the office for the last month and when he returned Monday he spoke to my boss and said he thinks I should be out on disability. So now my boss is pressuring me to stop work and file for SS. I am so nervous. This is such a bad time to cut my income but more than that I am so nervous of not getting SS. I know a few of you when I first joined the group said you had gotten approved without any problems. I will see my pulmodude on Monday and ask him for a PFT. If my numbers are those on the SS website then 1) should I file myself or go to a SS attorney? 2) is it true you do not get anything from SS for the first 6 months of disability? 3) is there anything you can offer as help on how to file and do it properly? Being told I had IPF did not upset me as much as this is. I would appreciate any advise. Eileen, 57 IPF/UIP May 07 new to O2 Dec 08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
