    My life is falling apart
    I have a lung condition called sarcodosis I'm trying to get ssid. My condition makes me hard to breath and I have also fibrosis of the lungs and just go over a bad case of pneumonia. When I got to the ssid doctor and they find I do have this condition do you think I have a good chance of being approved? My doctor wrote a note telling them I can't life more then 5 pounds and I must take a 15 min. break every 2 hours.

    You need to file for the disability yourself. When you get turned down you can then contact an attorney who specializes in social security disability. The attorney will then gather up all the medical records necessary to fight your case and present this evidence at a hearing on your behalf. You need to start this process now as it can sometimes take years to get approval for the benefits.
