When I just felt so tired no energy and I hurt all the time and stayed sick. I filled out for social security but they denied me so I went and got a lawyer. You have to have at least 1 year or more of your sickness on file at the dr office. Get a lawyer that you don't have to pay till you get your money.i had more than a year and I got back pay for it. I even get checks for my kids.

Before I was even diagnosed with Lupus I was having syncope episodesd, which is part of t&ee lupus. It took a long time to be approved but it finally happened. Get an advocate to help you thru the process.

Thank you! I will look into all this.. I'm not quite ready to leave my job just planning for the future.

Thank you I will.. Going to talk to my Rhumy on the 11th
