And I don't think it could have gone worse! I knew that awful neuro I got stuck with after mine left was going to ruin this for me. That judge read a long list of my symptoms and then this guy goes and puts in the record that they all have resolved! I don't know what world this guy is living in, but I certainly wish I was living in it too! Yes, a couple of them have, but the rest are just as bad now as when I first saw him! One specifically was the neurogenic bladder (so I guess peeing 4 times in the night is totally normal, and every half hour to an hour during the day). I just hope the judge digs further to see that this idiot has switched bladder meds because what I was taking quit working for me, which shows his assumption of everything being resolved is not true.
This is all because of my last MRI. Because the brain lesions (I only have 2) have shrunk and there are no new ones, suddenly everything is perfect again. Avonex has cured everything! He also went on to say how great I'm doing on it when last time I told him I wanted to stop taking it and he said no! If I end up getting denied, it's not like it'll matter anyway and I'll just stop taking it on my own. All this idiot is doing is further ruining my life, not helping.
The one good thing was the judge really thought I was credible after looking into my stable work history, so I guess that means he was more likely to believe me. I really hope that and my lawyer refuting what the VE had to say wins this for me, but I certainly don't feel like I got anywhere. According to the criteria, I should get this, but when that idiot decided to throw in his own two cents instead of what I actually said, I have no confidence.
