Denied

i got my decision today. it was heart wrenching to say the least. the memphis VA screwed me. the intern and her boss never put in my records i was not able to work due to on going prolonged exposure. i feel as if the va blew thru my claim and gave no regard to it at all. they sd i was able to "perform simple and repetitive tasks." it would cost me more in gas to go to work at a job like that. im going to retreat to my bed for an indefinite amount of time now. i am completely heartbroken over this.

and the SSDI decision came this morning.....DENIED! im so glad that SSA and the VA think im capable of returning to work when i cant even maintain a thought process long enough to finish a task at home. who the hell would want to employ me? as a rule, i prefer to be kissed b4 i get screwed at valentines ;)

I will add some insight on your SSDI decision. The first denial came from the folks at your state level or DDS. These folks are the first line of defense for claims.

You have a limited time to file your request for reconsideration. Get an attorney to do that with you.
