Disability due to Endo, IC and IBS
My name is Charlotte and I have been battling these conditions for 4 years now, I have had them for much longer. I deal with 4th stage Endometriosis, IC and IBS/Outlet obstruction conditions. This disease can make us feel powerless because it can consume us sometimes and takes so much from us. It has taken so much from me as well. I have had eight surgery's, receive weekly bladder instillation's and quarterly surgery's to manage my conditions. My case is so advanced it has eaten through my gallbladder, bladder ,abdomen,pelvis and bowl. I have tried to work while managing my conditions but its impact is to great and it always wins. I Have been fighting for my disability and have been denied two times. Not only do I have to fight for my life everyday I also have to watch my family suffer. We have almost lost out home 2 times and have sold everything. I am reaching out because I want to know if anyone has been approved for Disability due to any of these conditions? I know it must be a battle to work, I give credit to the strong women who can. Daily Strength is such a wonderful place to come together with people that deal with the same questions. I thank Everyone for their support. If we stand together we can gain power over this disease through knowledge!!
