The shakiness and muscle wasting affecting your legs and

stamina are precisely how I was until the medication kicked

in and started working for me. Hopefully, you are on the

right dosage and it will start helping you. If you possibly

can get in to see the doctor, do it. When was your last lab

test?

I forgot to mention in my other post that it is quite helpful to get all

of your medical records together. Luckily, the attorney's office that I

am working with did everything online and I just provided them with

information. They will ask about your work history, your medical

history, etc. It is difficult to remember all the stuff so just do the

best you can. You will also have to describe what type of deficits you

have now; things you are not able to do. It is a long an arduous

process so you have to be patient. My attorney has kept up with

everything so I didn't miss deadlines.

Hope this helps and know we are all here to help you.

about being eligible for social security disability and the process to

get there. I am unable to work now because of NS causing severe foot

drop in my right leg making walking very difficult I also have very bad

balance and tremors in all extremities. I was in a ATV accident on

6/12/07 causing a T12 burst fracture on 7/13/08 I had back surgery now I

have two screws in T11 and two screws in L1 and rods connecting them.

This of course did not help my situation at all but make it a lot worse.

Please if any one has experience in this area any information will be

greatly appreciated. Thank you all
