Q: Longterm disability

Has anyone had experience with longterm disability insurance for fibromyalgia and musculoskeletal chronic pain. I was recently turned down because my condition wasn't deemed severe enough to prevent work. I need narcotics as well as other meds and "helps" just to function. I have had a bad flare up and am unable to work currently. Can anybody help?  Thanks LP

All I can suggest is a good representitive. There is a place called Allsup who helps at allsup.com and I have seen commercials for attorneys Binder & Binder who help. Make sure you have your doctor on the same page as you and good luck, it sucks. I am currently going through the same thing! Good luck
