They said they can't believe I was denied and they have the document my neurosurgeon signed stating he believes I will be disabled for a year to pass along to the SSA when filing the claim, which I did way back when.

It's a shame they deny those that really have legitimate claims without even investigating so much as calling doctors.
yeah it sucks. there are so many scammers that they have put so many hurdles up that now people who really need it have a hell of a time getting it. When my mom first got sick they suggested she apply for the "emergency" funds. This would give her a small amount of of money to help cover the bills while she waited for the regular process to go through. They told us it would take 30-45 days for this to happen. It took 5 months. Even after getting approved for the emergency money they still declined her for the regular disability.
