I'm happy it went so smoothly for you. I think for most of us the process is less difficult than most of us would think. I'm very happy for you!

My Disability was APPROVED. I applied online in Dec. First week in Jan. I got a packet of papers to fill out with all my medical questions, and my daily schedule. I mailed that back last week. Yesterday I got a phone call asking me what Dr. perscribed my Oxygen. Then today I got the phone call telling me I was approved effective Jan. 1st. I never had to go to the office at all.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 JoAnn, Great news......I am so happy for you. I applied in Dec also and I have heard nothing. Are you on oxygen 24/7 and what is your DLCO, FVC, FEV1/FVC and TLC if you don't mind me asking? I know they look closely at those numbers.
