I'M SOLICITING ANYONES EXPERIENCE IN APPLING FOR DISIBLITY VIA THEIR EMPLOYER. THE COMPANY I WORK FOR IS SELF INSURED WITH DISABILITY COVERAGE. INCLUDED IN THE COVERAGE IS AN EXCLUSION FOR "MENTAL AND NERVOUS DISORDERS" I HAVE INQUIRED AT THE INS. UNDERWRITTER WHO WAS VAUGE IN THEIR RESPONCE. ANYONE COME UP AGAINST THAT? MY WORK PERFORMANCE HAS SUFFERED, IN MY OPINION, DUE TO PD SYMTOMS,(SLOWNESS, SH ORT TERM MEMORY LOSS, SIGNIFICANT STIFFNESS MAKING TYPING OR WRITTING SLOW AND DIFFICULT) . "BUT" I CAN STILL GET AROUND RELITIVELY WELL, I STILL DRIVE A CAR, I CAN DIG A HOLE IN THE GROUND AND MOW THE LAWN BUT IT'S SLOW AND TIRES ME OUT QUICKLY. THE QUESTION IS WHAT DEGREE OF DISABILITY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY AND ALL COMMENTS OR ADVICE. GARY
