Here’s my update. I did injections for my hip with no success. I have never lost my big toe nail before so this is new. The muscle spasms are crazy and extremely painful, I didn’t know this was part of the PsA. Has anyone in this group filed for Social Security Disability, if so how hard was it?
I filed back in May of 2014. I've been denied twice and now I'm appealing for a hearing, which my attorney (SSLG) listed on this website said it could take up to two years to get a hearing date. So, it's a long process and the more documentation your doctors make the more it helps your case. There is a group on this site you can join for Social Security Disability Application support and you'll see lots of people talking about how they went through the process and how it's going. Very good group to join up with. Just look under Groups listed above and you'll be able to find it. Good luck with your case. I hope it all works out for you.
It took me just over a month. As soon as they ex rayed my hips. Two weeks later I got a call that I was 100% disabled.if you are not over 65,even with a disability ,you must wait two years to be on Medicare! Have a lot of patience, because you’ll need it!
