Same in my case, for a year I wear only Adidas slippers, barefoot at home, with socks outdoors around my building, harder and harder to use public transportation, stay at work and endure 9 hours out of home. My feet neuropathy has worsened after cervical spinal cord fusion surgery two months ago, attacks of 10/10 pain happen earlier in a day and last longer, attacks accompanied by sharp anxiety pain in the abdomen and groin area that linger....I'm very desperate, and will be forced to retire soon....fearful to get completely disabled! I'm 59 and wished to enjoy my pension, but this seems will not happen...

Just an fyi it took me three years to get on social security disability. Denied twice and had to go before a judge. Hired an attorney. Here’s my diagnosis seizures, migraines, autoimmune severe axonal sensorimotor poly Peripheral neuropathy, small fiber neuropathy, dysautonomia, and asthma. Four left hip replacements along with actebulum fracture due to lack of blood flow to my joints. Motor neuropathy causes severe tremors in the hand and legs. I can’t feel my feet or legs, and I have cut my fingers so any times while cooking because I could not feel them look down and they were bleeding. I almost lost my foot due to an ulcer on my foot. I had to have antibiotics. All this and I had to go to court. The judge agreed that I was disabled and qualified. This was crazy. I walk with two canes that wrap around my arms and can’t dress myself. So frustrating. All this because SSID accused me of faking it. The judge looked at me and asked SSID how could I be faking it with all the documentation that I had. Some people have an easy time but in Texas I had a hard time.
