MDJunction to me

jaguarandcubs"MDJ is an integral part of my everyday life. Since joining in 2010, I have met so many amazing people. It is truly incredible to be able to share good times and not so good times with others who face the same health challenges. And MDJ has support groups for every condition I have. I don't know of anywhere else that can offer that. I love that I can learn from others as well as offer my own experiences for others to learn from." (jaguarandcubs)

Seeing something at the end of the tunnel … hope it's $$ & not a train. ;p

Finally got my SSD Hearing date set for November 2nd! I'm feeling very anxious about the unknown, now that it's here. The letter sounded mean. I hate being out of control … though you think I'd be used to by now, dealing with all my Chronic illnesses. What to do! What now? What happens btwn now & then? What will happen @ the hearing? Any tips or advice greatly appreciated, guys. Dizzy

I'm SO glad you have a hearing scheduled. YAY!!!

I can't remember if you have an attorney. If you do...more than likely he/she will be calling you to either visit by phone or in person about what to expect at the hearing. Otherwise, you will just show up there and go with it.

Here's the link to some good posts: http://www.mdjunction.com/forums/social-security-disability- advice-discussions/general-support/675837-what-was-your- hearing-walj-like

Members have shared their stories here about how their hearing w/ALJ went. Hopefully, this will help you, AND give you some peace of mind.

Be sure to keep us informed. We will be thinking about you!
