Hi Gerrie... When I stopped working last year (July, '97), after I realized that the Social Security Administration was giving me the run-around, I contacted my congressman's office. Per their request, I sent them copies of all correspondence between myself and Social Security and they in turn sent me copies of their correspondence with the SSA. THEN my congressman's office suggested I'd definitely need a lawyer specializing in SSDI claims to get the mess the SSA had created with my case straightened out. I concurred with them, considering the bizarre actions and comments of the SSA in regards to my case. My private long term disability carrier (who's dying for me to get back on SSDI so THEY won't have to fork over money to me each month till the year 2007 per their contract Wiht me) ALSO concurred and THEY took care of putting me in contact with a company that specialized in SSDI claims, and they are now representing me in my battle to get my SSDI benefits reinstated. I'm so heartedly sick and tired of this whole SSDI problem that I cuodl just SCREEEEEAM!!

Having been away, I just read your SSI message . Only one piece of advice, I hope you have contacted your congressman in your district. That was the only help, we fe lt did any good. Lawyer charged an outrageoous amount of money for 2 letters. I did everything with help from rep. Gerrie
