Post: TOXIC MOLD- SSDI: CFS, FIBROMYALGIA & COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT
Posted by N.J. on 3/01/10
From 1999 to 2003, my daughter and I were exposed to toxic mold. During that time, I developed Chronic Fatigue Sydrome, Fibromyalgia, severe cognitive impairment and short term memory loss. I still battle insomnia, depression and anxiety everyday. It takes me several hours just to write a few paragraphs. My speech is dyslexic and I can't do simple things like coping documents on a copying machine without getting confused and disoriented. I cannot function under stress at all. My brain shuts down and I go into a tailspin. I am 57 years old and I have lost the quality of my life due to toxic mold exposure. I have not been able to work since 2002. In 2005, I applied for SSDI and was denied. I appealed it many times, but I was still denied. I have since re-applied for SSI and SSDI and I have a hearing coming up in late March. Does anyone know if an MRI would show and/or "PROVE" that I truly suffer with severe conitive impairment and short term memory loss? I live in Riverside,California. Thank you for your help!
