Disabled With Post Shingles Neuropathy- Filing with Social Securiy
Posted , 5 users are following.
I have severe post neuropathy on my right side starting at the neck down my shoulder into my hand and fingertips. This causes limitations in all areas as I am right-handed. I am in the process of applying for Social Security disability and wanted to get input from others that may have done the same. It is hard to prove something that others can't see and it is frustrating. can anyone advise how they have moved forward with this disability process?

I take it that you live in the UK? I have had the after affects from the shingles for just over 6 months if you read my section on this web site you will see how I feel, and how like you are finding it hard to continue working im 62 this year and yes I cant retire for another 3 years. and stupidly I dont have any private pension. so yep im "STUFFED" my place of work wont/cant help me because I do not have the private pension so I have to go to work every day and every so often sit and cry in the loo... If any one can help Juli 26 I may be would be able to apply too. My pain Juli26 is under my right breast and around and up the back including the shoulder on top of this I have a damaged shoulder now and cronic arthritas which so far has made me have two full replacements knee's,
I wish you well Jocelyne

I waited a few years and thenI applied for ss. I got it immediately but I had a good team of doctors documenting how my condition effected my ability to do tasks which I used to be able to do.
I hope this helps!!
Let me know if you want more details
