I WON!!!

I WON my SSDI case! Now I have to wait for the letter that tells me what my backpay is and my monthlly pay.

Believe Me Or Not

Anyone listening? I search for relief! I don't think my doctors care. The pain and fatigue are beyond their belief. I'm treated like FM's not there. I try not to grumble, gripe and complain. It bothers my family and friends. So where do I turn and how... Read more Chevron
