Appeal documents

[SPO]

Just starting a new thread to reduce confusion.  I'm getting very close to submitting my supplemental claim and want to get opinions on the some of the documents I'll be submitting.  I don't have everything yet, but I'll post stuff as I receive it. First is the statement I plan on including as a lay statement.  Let me know if this seems to look good.

"I have been diagnosed with and suffering the symptoms of psoriatic arthritis for no less the 4 years.  My worst days involve very strong joint pain that can limit my ability to do daily tasks. All of my joints experience pain throughout the range of motion and while static. Both of shoulders are limited in motion by the pain caused when raising my arms forward and to the side.  I am an able to participate in any kind of sport that requires throwing, exercises using my shoulder cause significant pain. Both of my elbows experience increased pain while doing any type of activity that involves them bearing any weight as well as pain while sitting still. Both wrists experience the same pain during weight bearing and static as my elbows.  My hands experience pain and swelling in various knuckles.  My right hip experiences pain throughout the range of motion and increases while walking or standing for extended periods. My lower back experiences significant pain while walking or standing for extended periods. The pain often causes me difficulty sleeping. Bending over causes pain. I experience very sharp lower back pains that have brought me to my knees.  My left knee experiences pain throughout the range of motion. Standing and walking for extended periods increase the pain.  Both of my ankle experience significant pain from walking and standing.  Both feet experience significant pain that results on a limp on a regular basis.  All of my joint problems have resulted in my inability to conduct daily activities without experiencing pain.  Driving, walking, standing, Household chores all cause significant levels of pain.  I've found it very difficult to exercise without cause myself high levels of pain that remain elevated for several days afterward.  I need to remain on constant immuno-suppresive medication, supplemented by NSAIDs in order to reduce the pain levels."
