Got first denial letter, onto recon.

[moriah]

7. I retained a lawyer that helped a friend get approved in 7 months.

I did the recon myself, saying I believed I had a combination of impairments that met the severity of a listed impairment. I had new diagnoses to add, new medications that are causing me side effects, and another hospitalization, though that "repeated episode of decompensation" wants 3 hospitalizations in a year, too.

So the two of them, I think, meet it, and while I hope I don't wind up in the hospital again, I'm going to try to avoid it.
