I see that you have replied to some questions others have wrote about SS disability and I was wondering if you would help me as well. I live in Georgia I am 28 years old and I have Spondylolisthesis (a spinal disorder) I am on the following drugs, Tylenol#3, Neurontin, and the Fentanyl patch (duragesic) I have had spondy for 2 years, and I have a great deal of pain every day, my Doctor has recomended a bone fusion. I have had 4 different doctors confirm that I have spondy, I have tried several pain medications and treatments and all have failed. I am a house wife my kids are ages 5 & 11, I have mostly been a stay at home mom, I have only had a couple of jobs and they were temporary for Christmas money. In 3 weeks it will be 160 days since I have applied for SS disability, what do you think my chances are for getting it? My husband is a fireman and makes about 20 thousand a year,SS knows I had plans to start a job when my 5 year old started school this past year but the pain has got so bad I spend alot of time on bed rest. Any may doctor agrees that I can't sit, stand, walk for a long period of time. Please help me, I am so worried, We had to file bankruptcy last year the bills were so high, we dont own a new car or furniture and we have no credit cards, we filed bankruptcy because we could not afford daily living expenses. You can e mail me at Girl7254@aol.com Thank you Caroline
