They try to find any reason to initially deny and keep denying, they where likely trying to argue those things prove you are functional which makes no sense as none of that implies you could function on a job. Seems like things in your state are f***d up, any chance of appealing with an attorney?

But from what I understand its harder to get kicked off of it than to be approved for it...since it is harder for them to come up with reasons to 'prove' you have recovered enough to work. It is the getting on it one has to worry about not so much getting taken off of it...at least I hope so otherwise I am doomed in various ways.
