Wait, Are you really feeling better?

No Brad. I'm being very sarcastic.
I was told since I'm working fulltime I can't be as bad as I say, I must be having relief.
That is the total opposite of how I'm currently feeling. Lyme treatment made things hell of allt worse. Almost 3 yrs later there hadn't been an ounce of relief.
I PMd you by the way recently. Hope you're well.

Yes that happened to me. And then when I had to go on SSDI I was sucking off the government. Like I would give up a salary much larger than SSDI provides along with better and cheaper healthcare then "Affordable Care act" just so I could stay home.

I know Terv, I was on SSDI as well...you can't win.

I worked full time for 15 years after getting Lyme until I retired. Even taught with a pic line in and did my ivs before and after work.
I felt horrible most of the time but the alternative was not enough money to live on. As a teacher I didn’t qualify for SSDI in IL and my teacher disability was a joke.
We do what we have to do to keep going.
But the point is keep on going. Posted by Mountainsky (Member # 51857) on :
I love working too, if I was still on SSDI who knows how much worser I'd be ( mentally). SSDI is not enough to live on, even though they give you small "raise" the first of every year due to the cost of living. How are you supposed to pay for treatment too with a fixed limited income? Esp now with the rising costs of food, gas, etc?
