thanks free and everyone for the help i dont post much, but im always reading everybodys journey thru the madness,thanks again :)

i had problems with dizzness for two years and judge said there was know evidence in my med records or from my doctors or my doctors giving me a MRI.thats why it makes know since because the dizzness was the reason my doctor sent me for a MRI.plus i have been being treated for ibs and colitis ever since returning from the gulf in 1991 and had 6 scopes done and infact was scheuled for another one two days after my hearing and he wanted to see what the doctor found so we sent him the results after the scope was done and this is what is crazy because the scope was scheuled to see if a ulser that i had been taking antibiotics for had gone away so when i got the result back it said know abnormalitys were found and so he used this to say there was nothing wrong with me.ignoring all the other evidence.like the other 6 scopes that showed cronic IBS and colitis and other one that showed i had a bad ulser.so i guess all the pills i take for IBS/colitis,pain meds for joint pain and xanax for anxiety are just for the hell of it,none of that was ever talk about in the decision.he even ignored his own psychaiatric doctor that said that i had panic disorder.but he found know where in my med. records that i had been being treated for that,so he is not giving it any significant probative weight.also he said none of the claiments treating sources have rendered an opinion concerning the claimants abilitiy to work.which is B.S. because i sent letters from both of my doctors saying i cant work,so i dont know if this guy is ignoring all the evidence some of the evidence or what he got from disability group or my doctors but looking at the things i know he got he definitly ignored that.its just wrong

how do i find out what evidence they had,because there was several things he said that wasnt true one of which was that i never had a mri on my brain

they dont get paid if i dont,i havent heard from them yet,so i dont know if there going to appeal or not i dont think i can get a new lawyer or not unless they decide not to appeal.i hope they dont cause i havent been that pleased with them i used disability group out of california they called the day before bender and bender i wished i would have waited i think if i would have used someone local i might of had more luck.disability group did use a local lawyer and she said at the hearing that if they didnt appeal to call her and she would do my appeal.i dont know it so frustrating

yes i have a lawer,and i felt the same way as soon as i walk in i new i wouldnt get it,i could just tell by the way he acted,i dont think he liked me.

those that think that va total and permanant gives you a lock for ssd it dont and the reason for denial was completly made up he just ignored the facts and on the va he just said that he is not bound by the va decision,no kidding thats the best you could come up with.i know i can appeal but it is so frustrating when a judge just ignores three doctors saying i cant work and his own jobs guy saying theirs know job i can do,thanks for letting me vent :) ill keep fighting till i die

i got rated for IBS,chronic fatigue and joint pain. they will not rate for gulf war syndrome i tryed they acted like i was from mars.and i dont think i would have been given a positive rating if i wouldnt have been getting treatment for these problems for eight years and within 2 months after getting back from the gulf.and it still took 4 years to get,so good luck and keep fighting.also i just got denied from the ALJ on SSD,go figure guess ill be appealing ;)

its the same claim as va claim, gulf war symtoms,only took 6months to recieve 100% because i had years of med. records and i was already 30% that also took about 6months it was paying my medical bills and perscriptions and i could still work but kept getting worse and missing more than i was working so i had to make a financial decision and refiled and got 100% iu p&t,i know that filing for ssd takes a long time but i didnt think it took that long to hear something after your hearing ;)
