What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? california
I have a ten-year history of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. However, in Sept. 07 I was also diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and Connective Tissue Disease. I stopped working as a teacher and in April 08 was approved for disability (short -term) through my elected provider. However, the insurance company continued to ask for additional medical forms and my Rheumatologist refused to fill them out. My disability ended June 30 and now i have sent a request to appeal that decision. I have had NO income since then and now am looking at being homeless, hungry, not able to get meds, etc. Please help! I would be greatful for any suggestions.
