Has anyone else, with Bronchiectasis, applied and received long-term disability? I got sick in Oct 2019. Took leave of absence from my job in Feb. 2020. Was diagnosed in Mar. 2020. I have reoccurring lung infections. The chronic fatigue, fevers and extreme exhaustion on a daily basis, are debilitating for me. I've tried to go back to work several times, the longest I lasted was 3 weeks. I've been denied SSI twice now. Going into my 2nd appeal. I love my job and wish I could go back.
