Multiple disability denials. What next?

[Cait22]

Now what???????????

So this is about my 4th time applying for disability and I found out tonight I've been denied again because they think my condition isn't severe enough. My hours at work have been dropped from 40 a week to 24 I have no health insurance because I cant even afford it or even half of my bills if I didn't have my amazing boyfriend to help out I don't know what I would do. I am also so far in debt from medical bills I don't think ill ever be able to pay them off and I just keep getting deeper and deeper in debt. I honestly don't know how much more I can take and after my meds run out I am seriously screwed I cant afford 1000 something a month. This is all so frustrating!!!! :ymad:

Does your state have a Consumer Advocate? If so, go present your case.

I live in Nebraska I've never heard of that I will have to check that out thank you
I did call a lawyer today and she did the appeal for disability while I was on the phone and I have an appointment on the 21st of this month with the lawyer so I'm hoping they can help me out. I also found out today that I've been approved for free Remicade so things are starting to get a lil bit better. just gotta take it one day at a time

I got denied by disability so many times! I finally got a lawyer and she got me a date with a judge. She said that's usually the only way to get an approval, to have a real judge see you in person and hear your story. I got approved that day. She got a small percentage of money straight from disability I didn't have to pay her a penny out of pocket.
