Is there anyone here who got their application for social security disability approved and who would be willing to talk to me and my wife about it? I would be very grateful.

Hi
12 years ago I got mine approved. All I did was send in application and they called up and said I was approved.
I also had a foot problem that may or may not be related to PNE. I think my doctor also went to bat for me.

I did after hiring a lawyer and visiting pain clinic every month. It took 2 years and went before a judge but finally was able to get approved. If interested still let me know.

Hi has anyone in the UK had disability secured for this condition. I have submitted all my medical notes months ago and still waiting for them to go through it and make a decision. I'm currently on employment and support allowance but due to the delibilating nature of this condition then surely disability is an option?

Approved on first try. My potter MRI was helpful to have, where she clearly states "entrapment". I used a lawyer.

Thank you for giving me hope and glad you had yours approved. I'm desperate to return to work as I love teaching but knowing only too well what my job demands physically and mentally need to realistic as only 4 months post surgery. Did you apply for PIP as well I'm currently ploughing through the questionnaire. Excuse my ignorance but the disability payment is different to employment and allowance support?

Hi,
Am a bit confused. Is 'Social Security Disability' a USA or UK benefit?
Thanks in advance for any info.

It's a benefit in the USA. I don't know about the UK.
