How can I get a Job??

I just got my denial letter from SSDI. According to them I can find another job in another field. Sure, I will just go right out and get hired by the first place I go to.

My doctor has me on restrictions that make any job impossible. The company doctor at the place where I still technically "work" will not let me return. I have had two pancreas doctors tell me there is nothing they can do, also a pancreas surgeon told me there is nothing surgically he can do. I even had a pain doctor tell me my case exceeds his level of expertise. My entire day is spent in bed with multiple trips to the bathroom, if you know what I mean. When you pancreas is shot you don`t know what a solid bowel movement is.

Sorry for the rant. I don`t have anyone to talk to about my problems.

Hi igiveupinohio

I hear your frustration and that is an awful thing to have to deal with on a day to day basis. How many times have you applied and been turned down for SSDI?

I ask this as I was turned down twice and I finally had to go before an administrative judge to get approved for SSDI. If you have a lobotomy they will approve you the first time it seems. Keep fighting for SSDI approval even if it means getting an attorney who specializes in it. Most only get paid if you win.

Best wishes!

You should try and try again through the lawyers that dont get paid until you do

Hi igiveupinohio. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles.

May I ask how many times you have applied? It took me three tries before they finally gave it to me. The third time I got a lawyer.

They always deny. Is this your first time? First time denials are like 85%. Keep trying.

It was my first time. Everyone kept telling me I would get it. I knew better. It still ticks me off though. I ended up calling one of those "Big City" Lawyers Friday. They are supposed to get back with me Monday. Sounds like it is all just a big racket so everyone can get their piece of the pie.......

I'd recommend you appeal the decision, also get a disability attorney...they don't get paid unless you get on the SSDI/SSI. They usually do initially deny people, its kinda stupid but seems to be how it works.
