Hi Camilla, Yes I was awarded disability and tried going back to work for awhile. I was almost penalized for the time I worked. After my situation was evaluated social security decided not to ask for a return of funds. I did try working for a year, but then the pd was becoming debilitating to the point there was no ONE day alike. I have not worked for 7 years now. Hope this helps.
