vemee Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 I just got social security disability awarded to me and the award was based on my pots symptoms. They looked at mainly the section in the disability rules concerning the heart. What helped me was I got a lawyer, and went to nationally rated medical centers such as Cleveland clinic and Vanderbilt. Even though those doctors do not fill out social security paper work there research will give your local doctor a big boost in validity. I took 2 years to get approved and that was at the appeals hearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylortotmom Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Congratulations! Your story sounds almost identical to mine, two year long process, won at the appeals hearing with an attorney primarily on the heart symptoms. Good for you- I know it is a tremendous relief!Carmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadine Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Congrats--I just had my hearing too and it is a relief to have it over --- it was also almost a 2 yr. process. This is so difficult, physically, mentally and financially, especially for those who have no other income. I also had attorney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
