Barry,
Sorry to hear that SS has made you jump through every conceivable hoop. No, I haven't applied for SS as of this time. I am currently on LTD through my employer. I am "hopeful" that I will be able to return to work in some type of capacity soon. I have one more interesting thought for you.... Clusters can be a disability and therefore covered under ADA (American Disabilities Act). A company must make "reasonable" accomendations for you. I know it is not as simple as that sentence. Circumatances vary in each case. It is definitely worth researching the law and seeing if it is applicable in your case. The law will be my "protection" in allowing me to return to work.
I wish you the best, irene
