@dbeshears1 Hi Debbie - thank you so much for the information. I’m intimidated by the process yet not able to continue working. I also keep hoping it will get better or I can find better treatment but that’s not happening. Do you mind sharing if you applied for disability with “neuropathy” or something else?

Sure, it was idiopathic neuropathy only. Any other health woes I may have today are post-neuropathy onset. The neuropathy has limited the use of my hands and feet. My professional requires a lot of computer proficiency and my fingers don’t type adequately. Carrying things to meetings would require assistance that companies, even large ones, can’t afford. If I had a talking/mental job, I could probably do it, but medications have side effects to deal with. I think the bottom line would be how your main doctor caring for you assesses your ability. The sad thing is, we all believe the system has been abused, and it has… so sadly, it makes it harder and intimidating for those in real need to apply and prove.
