Applying
for Disability
This
section will contain general information on how to apply for disability.
Of course, the relevance of this information will depend on where
you live and local eligibility requirements.
What
we would like our members to do is tell us where you live and whether
you were approved for disability. We want others to benefit from
your experience whether or not you were approved for disability
benefits.
Your
insights might help others, or someone else’s insights may
help you. That’s what FibroTalk is all about -- helping one
another.
Lawyer
Referral Service
If
you’ve had a positive experience with a lawyer in your area,
please let us know so we can insert his/her name into our database
of lawyers dealing with benefits and disability claims. It’s
always good to find someone with a good track record and some demonstrated
expertise in this evolving area of law.
Doctor Referral Service
If
you’ve had a positive experience with a physician in your
area, please let us know so we can insert his/her name into our
database of doctors dealing with FMS/CFS. As we all know, doctors
who understand our illness are hard to find. Let’s share such
knowledge for our mutual betterment.
Product
Reviews & Surveys
Many
of us take supplements which help make our pain more tolerable.
If you’ve found something that’s worked for you, tell
us about it. You may be helping someone else who’s hurting
just like you. A word of caution, however. There are lots of con-artists
out there who prey on sick people and their desire to be well again.
Don't fall for snakeoil 'miracle cures'.
Medical
Journal Abstracts
We’ll
be combing through reputable medical journals for new research findings
in the area of FMS/CFS. If it’s a major finding, you’ll
find it here.
Book
Reviews
There
are some books on fibromyalgia that are quite informative. We will
attempt to list and review some of the better titles to guide your
purchasing decisions. Similarly, if you’ve read a great book
that we should add to our list, send us the title and the author’s
name so we can make it known to other members.
