Oh, sorry! But it was months ago wasn't it? I don't know the situation with the job firing but it could have been the stress from what the original physician said or seemed to demand and put in motion. I would decide do I want the social security or do I want to try getting a job and starting "over" and then do that and not bother with this current "mess".

You are always allowed to look for a job but not when you are being treated and the doctor says it's not a good idea and you want to do what the doctor says but you do not have to agree with a particular doctor (as you have decided not to) so you could always decide to look for a job and not get social security. But, it sounds like you have figured that out and are doing that!
