FYI, to anyone this may help... I went through the disability nightmare too. I was put on a list that was 18 months long just to start the appeal process for my corrupt initial turn-down. I went to my Congresswoman, Elizabeth Dole. I didn't expect a republican to help me much but she did. I plead my case to her people, they called the SSA and got me "dire-need status." I though "okay maybe I'll get lucky and get in within a year." I got a letter confirming my status and was in court within 60 days. My disability lawyer was good according to most and she did not even know such a move was possible. When in doubt, see what your state politicians can do--that's the second time I was pleasantly surprised by such.
