Well, I bore people with my troubles, so I feel like I have to pay it forward by giving them some positives back, so they feel like the work they do really helps someone (ME!). Sometimes people get so busy that they never find out the end results, so I wanted them to know my end result.
My SS case went back to March, which really isn't that bad from what I hear. I am only 37 and had to fight with the diagnosis of chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. Of course I was denied the first time, I went to see an attorney and they took the case from there. I think my medical records speak for themselves and I am a compliant patient, so things must have just worked this time when they sent them through.
I had been told that I was so young I would probably be denied the second time and have to go to court and stand before a judge. But, I was prepared. Do you know, they never sent me to one of "their" doctors??? Even though they asked me several times, and I said I would go?? That seems weird to me.
Thanks you all, my head is spinning!!!

Well butter my buns and call me a biscuit!
What good news you share!
I am thrilled to hear you will have some help through all of this stuff going on. You certainly deserve it.
And thank you Needs. I appreciate your kind words.
You just made my day!
Now it is time for the BIG DEAL! Get yourself ready!
I treated myself to a bottle of REAL blue cheese dressing and several new pairs of panties when I got my good news.
Let's see what you can do to top that!

2 more people to say a special thank you too....
MINOUCAT for starting and compiling her disability post at the top....
CONNIEMC for her valuable experience as a NON-LAWYER representing other lyme patients like herself, and sharing what has worked for her!
now, here's a big thank you to others, nameless, who added their experience too in minoutcat's wonderful post! hugs/kisses to each of you...

Tincup,
If I bought new panties, my husband would either be toooo excited, or jealous!! I dare not even mention buttering buns.....holy cow!!!
BettyG,
I did go through MINOUCAT's disability information with a fine tooth comb as well as used CONNIEMCs symptom information, they do deserve special thanks too!! They compiled A LOT of information!!! It was overwhelming, but I took it slow and somehow got it done.
Isn't it nice to have some good news occassionally!

WoW!! congrats!!!!
Maybe I should move to florida and reaply!
Ohio is such a terrible place to apply they are morrons at the DDS here.
Ohio DDS hires retarted people that they deny SS to and puts them to work as examiners.
