This information and advice is priceless

Just make sure you hire a lawyer that is going to be proactive in your case. My hearing is less than 1 1/2 hours from now and I have yet to speak to my lawyer, who was going to call last night and I stayed up late and didn't take my pain meds until I couldn't take it anymore and here I am wondering if they will even show. It's a phone hearing, but who knows if they even answer the phone. I've waited 3 1/2 years for this hearing. I understand I'm not the only client. And I'm not pesty. A phone call or 2 over this whole time would have sufficed. I'm going in blind to this hearing except for KZbin videos.

I hired a lawyer and I still had to see the judge

Review your medical file for sure but well in advance, often your physician will not document what you tell them, even things you have told them multiple times on multiple visits. This could be a critical piece of evidence, for example I have told my VA healthcare provider for the past 3 yrs about numbness in my feet which affects my balance, nada, zip, zero documented, so I went to an outside doctor to get that in my medical file. Hopefully, this additional evidence will help me win my case.

How many records that found mistakes. I had to go to many doctors and get their facts straight.

[@pappyweasel7766]

both of my feet, ankles and halfway up the shins have been too tender to touch for a year or so, just in the past week the swelling, especially around the ankles. I had acute respiratory failure last sept, they did a ultrasound, didn't show anything. i was researching it the other day and seen a very interesting study on the possibility of spinal fusion can impede the vena cava. I'm going to mention it to my doctor.

Thank you.

It's a shame in America that lawers and judges, as well as case workers with zero medical knowledge, can dictate a disability claim or need. So shameful, considering most if not all lawmakers are that couldn't make the cut as attorneys and went into politics and government jobs.

Dude, why not just hire the law firm? Get yourself a lawyer. That's what I would do if I was in your situation. You don't have to pay nothing's up front. I'm thinking that's the best avenue you can take get yourself a lawyer..

[@melissastewart247]

How far back should medical records go back because i was only asked for the past 2 years?

[@evansdisability]

Hello, we recommend getting medical records at least back to the date you allege you became disabled (Alleged Onset Date - AOD).

[@evansdisability]

Hello, we apologize for getting back to you so late. My thoughts are you should see what program you might be eligible for and then apply for that Social Security disability program.

[@RUDEMASTER]

Why not just hire a lawyer? You don't have to pay them nothing up front. If they win your case, then you pay them. It's easiest way. That's what I did I got me a lawyer
