Last week Tue I had a Social Secuerty hearing
As I was turned down when I aplyed
It took almost a hour and they ask me so many questions
I kept thinking the next one was going to be what color jockeys I wear
But with migraines and other head ackes
I would be missing a lot of days at work and I would never pass a drug test with the pain meds I take for the migraines
So the job placement guy admited there were no jobs I could work at
So I will probely be going on SS in 3 or so months
Not how I planed on making a living at 49
But 2 - 3 migraines a week kind of screws up things
Then Wednesday I had a Ohio Workmans Comp hearing on my appeal to get a C Pack to help me breath at night
Late last winter I went to a doctor about not sleeping
So I did a sleep study to see how I was breathing
After just over a hour they woke me up and put a C Pack mask on me
I then had a great nights sleep
In the first hr I had stopped beathing over 30 times
Sleep Doctor said I had to have had a problem before I fell , so he said I had the problem before
But I never had a problem , also the sleep study doctor had no proof or anything to back up his claim
Well it took 6 months and seeing 2 other Doctors ( that I paid for )
But they both submited tons of paperwork that the type of head ingurey I had causes sleep problems
So I appealed
Wednesday my lawer made a 5 min talk and ask to have the first Doctors findings thrown out and to get me a C Pack
The Lady from Workmans Comp said they were not going to apose the 2 new doctors , as 1 of the doctors was the head of sleep studys at Wayne State University
Well the hearing lasted 7 min total
With the guy in charge saying he aproved the apeal
I still have to wait like 20 days to be sure there are no apeals
But in a few weeks I should be getting the first good sleep since last winter
Oh well
Now to hope I can sleep at least a little tonight
