Hi,
Yes I will begin to get regular SS next month since I am 62 and retired early. SSDI will get me about $500 more per month.
I got did the phone interview just fine. SS lady was really nice. I just explained what was going on and now send her a medical form so my docs can send them medical records. She said maybe I would have to see onte of their doctors, so NEW question, but along the same line.

If I get an appointment to see a SS doctor, should I stop taking my depression, anxiety and fibro meds? Then the doc can see the "real" me and do the pressure point exam for fibro and make me scream! If I keep taking the meds that won't happen, but my mid will be foggy and no one can see that!
