Hey, Doc! Can you address Forrestiers disease, aka DISH disease?

@jdavefoster, how about ankylosing spondylitis?

Hello! I was hoping you could help explain your quote at the end of your videos. I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious. Thanks for your time!

special people can get disability

Don't most doctors, familiar with Fibromyalgia, use the diagnosis of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, to meet the Social Security Blue Book requirement?

Medical records are key. My decision was based on complete medical docs spanning for 3 years. Boom!

I apply for disability and was told to take attorney, I can't afford. Now i am 76 i think i should be on disability i am on weel chair .

So you passed the woman with "anxiety" that felt "overwhelmed" being in a grocery store - based solely on her spoken words, but you reject the ones with spine injury and don't take into consideration their old x-rays and MRI that attest that. I think you said it all of who you are and how superficial and heartless you are in decision making.

You are wrong in your diagnosis and I will tell you why. In 2012 my knees and my ankles got very weak and painful. Also, my both arms and hands would get numb day and night. The weakness and pain in my joints was so severe that I could not bike anymore. That year I was doing extreme physical effort working 12 hours shifts each day taking care of 5 residents, 3 of them being in wheelchair. At that place later on I had an accident that fractured my spine. In 2014 my thumb from the left hand got swollen and painful and I couldn't use it anymore for more than 6 months. In 2018 both of my shoulders got very painful on the inside and swollen on the outside. The right one was crippled for two years. Two years I couldn't lift my arm and I had a very hard time taking shower. All these arthritis symptoms came and gone as I couldn't work anymore. Now, in November 2024 I was at the doctor the Disability office sent me. In that day, I didn't have any pain in joints or anything swollen. The doctor pushed me to do all the movements and he also pushed my both shoulders and rotated my arms. The result? After one week my shoulders started to hurt and my arms together with my hands gradually started to get numb day and night like they were back in 2012. Whom to tell this and how to prove? The doctors I went to didn't perform any x-rays, MRI, or any other tests. They solely based their decision on what I said, and I didn't complaint much as I couldn't remember everything in that moment. My brain is very affected and cannot focus or concentrate many times. I was found this summer with over-sized heart and can die any time as my brain doesn't get enough oxygen. I had a stroke already in 2022. This problem with my heart is mainly because I was left by "doctors" without any thyroid hormones substitutes for 9 years, in conditions that I had my thyroid completely removed back in 2007. Starting with 2015 the results of my blood tests were systematically falsified, the results of x-rays were also falsified, and I never got any real results with one exception. Every time I tried to go to doctor, everything was "fine". I am walking death for 9 years, and my body could survive just because I could get some medication Europe, and what I could get online, but the things got worse as all the vital medication got cut from mg to mcg which is truly next to zero, and all the natural alternatives got banned from everywhere. This is a demonic system, and what doctors do it is called genocide. You don't take into consideration what the patient is telling you, and you don't believe him/her, and in most of the cases you do wrong to them. Because in the case of osteo-skeletal diseases these episodes can come and go, and they would surely return immediately after you are pushed to do physical effort, or after you are pushed to do certain maneuvers at the medical exam. The doctors get from the start with the false idea that the patient is miming his disease/s. This is inhuman and immoral. And what is hilarious and unjust, is that all drug addicted get super easy approved for Social Supplemental Income fraudulently; They are heavily into drugs that alter their mental state, and they go to the doctors in this state and fake "bi-polar disorder". I was heavily abused by them, as all the high rise apartment buildings got filled with them starting with 2022. They have absolutely not any mental disorder. They are extremely evil and sadistic. They are day and night on drugs that pump their heart and they simply cannot stay still. They became criminals. They break the doors of other residents, they listen and track their victims inside of their apartments with contact microphones they put on the floor, and they constantly drop heavy stuff in the floor above your head. They don't let their victims get any rest or peace of mind day and night, and all of them are stalking their victims. And as it is very hard to prove what they are doing, their victims needs to move while these criminals continue to live comfortable on SSI paid from our taxes, having absolutely not any mental or physical disability that would restrict them to work, continuing to heavily abuse resident after resident. On the contrary, all of them are into body building and have such an inhumane energy that none of us have. Instead of being racked in a labor camp and put to work and pay for their shelter, they are granted immediately an income, while the ones like me with real physical disabilities are getting constantly false results and are left to die by doctors, who became truly criminals. It happen to me starting with November 2022 until present.

Hello DR. Foster, I was hit by a car in 1990 and as a result now, I have a crooked spine where I feel continuous dull pain up and down my back. I have a herniated disk, two disks are fused together and two disks are bulging. My hips are crooked (the left one leans forward because my left leg is more than an inch shorter than my right leg, and pain spreads from my lower back and hips the longer I stand. I can stand/walk for around 30 minutes, which increases to a 7-8 on the pain scale, and then I need to lie down for a couple hours. When I press down on my head, my head starts hurting and is a little numb. When I had an MRI on my head, it showed a big blank space in the lower part of the front of my head. I have serious brain fog, which I take medicine for, and seizures which I take medicine for, but doesn't stop me from getting seizures. When I sit down, I am constantly moving around, because my lower back and hips are so uncomfortable and in pain. My body is probably at a 3 in pain throughout the day, but I can only walk and stand before I need to lay down. I would like to get your opinion on my physical if you can. Also when the doctors check the reflexes for my feet my feet don't jump like normal, they don't move at all. I did have surgery for a pinched sciatic nerve and I am still having pain shoot down my left leg occasionally.

The delay should not be 2 years I agree that is too long but the disabled person , if he was working at a company, could continue to get insurance while on short or long term disability from his employer. In a worse case scenario he could get a plan on healthcare. Gov and if his income very low get Medicaid, while he waits for Medicare. Medicare is not free as he will pay for part b and need a medigap and part d plan

can you make another video about malingering ?

Hello sir! It is my pleasure watching your videos for any information going forward with my disability claim. There are so many things about it that I did not know since the last time I applied almost 10 years ago. I hope for a better outcome this time around. The thing is I think you might have a larger following on youtube if you mix it up a bit, maybe a Metallica t-shirt every once in a while. Stuff like that. I also have been noticing your left shoulder getting worse, like it is drooping more as the months go by. Maybe you should be getting disability, why not. Maybe a more lively background instead of the Gilligan's Island S.S. Minnow. Anyway, I hope everything is OK with you and have been a long time follower but have only recently subscribed.

Thank you for another great upload! I’ve personally known of only one person that passed away from ALS-but it was fast and horrific. I think it was 11 months that she suffered in total. She was only able to talk the first five or six months of the disease and after that had to communicate almost just by blinking or lifting one finger or something like that.Utterly horrible. I agree with what you said about people needing to take action and the encouragement to do so if they would like Social Security rules changed.

Thank you Doctor always great info. on your chanel🍎

What the he'll are you talking ABOUT... so sick of health care as a issue... IT'S an issue that was never a problem as USA heath care has ALWAYs been good and truthfully the more they fix it the worse and more expensive it gets... ... THE USA GOV politicians as alwAys Tell you what THEIR job is rather than addressing real PROBLEMS, that's good work WHEN you can get it ... They do that when they are not artificially creating problems for THEIR ulterior motives of profit and control.....heath care needed no time devoted vs massive amounts as with Obama and then wash and repeat indefinitely... it's LIKE abortion that was fixed time after time after TIME after time ...... In your example the person would have Medicaid if not the remaining portion of their private plans from work that are structured to cover the gap... and like I said... no sky falling... no great bunches of disabled citizens up in arms, no just you TRYING to draw a picture of one non material poor case ... jesssusFc..... and if you separate the actusl care from the cost , it's the cost that's the problem but that is just part of a larger issue , even so, what your complaining about will do nothing but increase that cost even more.....

what about fibromyalgia and interstitial cystitis?

Doctors touch my SI joints and they are on fire, severe spinal stenosis makes my lower to mid back painful where I can't function. So do I suppose to act like it doesn't hurt when it's out of control. Muscle spasms so strong caused scoliosis. Severe cervical stenosis hurts too, my neck is always sore.

Thank you Doctor Foster you Sir are A good man

My husband was on workmen comp a year for his back He took settlement and applied for ssdi he has several disk problems he was in construction can not work they offered surgery he says no but take shots I hope he gets it he did construction 25 years

This is crazy when the doctor does mri that is where the find the problem

What about MS

If you just got disability why do you have to wait 24 months for Medicare if you cannot work and most likely do not have insurance?

I worked w grand mal seizures my whole life grow up people 🎉😢

What percent over age 60 are approved?

I commented but after hearing you all the the way , I have constant open sores from my neurological Prurigo . This is one of the most depressing aspects of my life. Do I go back and keep trying ? I take pictures of these open wounds when they occur, and that is at least half of the year I am bandaged and dressed with long sleeves so I don’t visually frighten people.

I was not even allowed to speak or explain any conditions to the judge. My doctors and the disability orthopedist stated that I would NOT be able to work a full forty hour work week. Apparently the judge was reprimanded by her superior and had to reopen the case for a second hearing. During this trial she was already irritated with me, and once again I asked to just speak…… but she did not agree. I am at a loss and heading for homeless. 😞

Dr. Foster, love your tie! Thanks for your videos. Very informative!

TThank you for clarifying the 24 month delay for Medicare! Hoping that my husband's disability date will shorten his wait.

As a Medicaid caseworker, I completely agree with your point about people who are found eligible for SSDI not being able to access Medicare immediately. It's as though SSA is saying, "We know you can't work because you have a significant medical condition. Good luck with that for the next 2+ years!" Many of these folks can qualify for Medicaid, at least here in Pennsylvania, but not all of them. It's so frustrating!

Does the diagnosis of delusional disorder and active tuberculosis qualify for disability?

You are like a stoic oracle i image you wouldve been a greek philosopher in your past life lol

Thank you for share

This video was very helpful. Thank you.

Thank you for your good service and your you tube videos.

I agree...our government is insane to make people wait up to 29 months for heath care (MEDICAID or MEDICARE) when they are disabled. I can not wave a flag for a country that does that to it's sick and injured.

I appreciate your non sugar coated approach to the system. Folks need to listen to all your videos. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge.

The answer to "nothing I do makes it better or worse" is that the pain makes focusing on tasks nearly impossible.

Work burns me out so bad I am suicidal every day, but that didn't help my case. I got denied. Since then, in addition to depression, anxiety, and ocd, I have been diagnosed with autism. But I have six years of working full time (with some time on short term disability) I doubt they would approve me even though my medical providers think I should apply.

Its alot of people that cant get disability that actually needs it. And a lot of people that do have it, nothing is wrong with. Smh

All while we give BILLIONS to wars that have nothing to do with us!

I don’t want to be on disability. For 3 years I’ve tried. I’m in constant pain. My back top and bottom. Stabbing pains in thoracic area. Lower back feels like a deep awful ache. I can’t sit more than 30 minutes, stand for more than 25 minutes. I sleep maybe 3-4 hrs a night from pain and digestive issues from IBS. I constantly seek treatment. I tried a job like I use to do in customer service and didn’t last 3 days leaving early over 3 weeks needing a week to reducer after a day of excruciating pain from standing or sitting and handling customers. I have osteoarthritis and IBS, just got diagnosed for fibromyalgia. My original injuries are from when I was in my 20’s being T Boned, they have gotten much worse. I applied. I do need help right now. My family has so much financial pressure and I cannot work a regular job. I see a spine doctor, physiatrist, primary script, chiropractor, massage therapist. Can I qualify? I’m a mess. I don’t sleep. It’s caused me major issues with coping with the day due to pain, naseau, being so tired.

Tried so many meds. Make me loopy, and further my gastrointestinal issues.

Healthcare is severely broken and extremely cruel. This leads to Americans becoming suicidal and completely shutting down mentally. Deathcare is all I see.

?? What happens when military medbeds come out to all public in Jan 2025 and everyone gets healed 100% and sre 30 years younger does dissability go away ???

? What happens if my friend is 66 on disability and invested a few dollars on xrp and has a large proffit did there dusability end at 66 and now doen’t have to report it????

My relative was in a psych hospital 17 times for psychosis. With schizoaffective disorder. 17 times ! Even taken with police and put in straight jacket in hospital. She recently told me she knew how to get out of a straight jacket in the hospital in the past. Yep they denied her Disability. Thankfully she is over 62 now. Almost old enough to also get medicare. 65 soon

I got approved SSDI and SSI after 3 years with an attorney. It's a very long slow process. The administration looks for any reason not to approve you.

What percent over 60 get approved for disability?

What percent over 60 get approved?
