Yes, I've been approved for SSDI and will receive $240 per month. Medicare would have been part of the $240, at a cost of $140. Since I have Medi-Cal (Medicaid) I was able to turn down Medicare. That's really lucky for me.

I have not yet looked into applying for SSI because frankly, I want to take a short break from the grind of all the work I've done to receive SSDI. I'm feeling a bit burned out. When I apply for SSI I want to feel energized enough to tackle the system. So I'll apply for SSI in October.

Yes,my post was from before I had sent you a PM.

I'm glad you were approved and thanks for the update
