Re: So my unemployment ran out...
ok now thats interesting...i had the same problem. A herniated disk in my neck c6 c7 and i just woke up one morning with serve pain in my shoulder that how fast it hit me and things only got worse from there. I ended being in bad pain for about 5 weeks...could hardly eat or sleep and started getting numbness, tingling, and weakness. it spread to both shoulder then eventually even my hands lost function. At my worst i could not even grab a glass of water to drink with right or left hand. i was having muscle spasms as well...it wasnt fun. i took a medical leave from work while all this going on and of course saw a doc and had mri done. i had good insurance. Got referred to a neurosurgeon and he advised me of my options:
surgery fusion of c5,6,7 with plate
physical therpy
or spinal injections with steriods
i tried physical therapy first and found it too grueling to do that i stopped and went back and scheduled surgery. Had surgery back in june it went ok other than losing alot blood and having to have transfusion. After surgery i took 8 weeks physical therapy which didnt go very well. i have been still struggling with problems and havent returned to work either. I have been off work now 9 months and im doubting i will be able to return to my old job...which is a pretty physical factory job which was running production, repetitive kind of work.
im 42 and had this job for 6 yrs.
Social security disabilty is not easy to get and honestly if you can be a greeter at walmart yet you wont get it, if you choose to even try, it will average 1.5 yr wait or more.SSDI is alittle easier to get if your age 50 or over.
ok so now i know where you coming from see cuz its not a good situation to be in.

just wanted to share my experience...forgive my long post

personally i want to start my own business but in this economic enviroment...that not going to be easy

i guess we both have shit luck

I will add the surgery to fix this problem costs about 20 grand and there aint no way in hell a chiropractor is going to fix a herniated disk...
see herniated disk is caused by degenerated disks or disk. its call DDD (degenerative disk disease). This is serious shit

Go see a chiropracter, you'll be back to health.

I wish it was that easy. Chiropractors don't really touch necks much and cannot help with this, at least that's what I was told.
 Quoting: Follower of YHWH

Brother,
I know now that YHWH prompted me with this impression. "Tell him to visit a NUCCA Chiropractor". They specialize in upper cervical care. My son is one of these type of Chiropractors and will attest that many people having this treatment for your same problem have had great success stories. Here's a link for a NUCCA doctor in your area:

[link to www.nucca.org]

Make them aware of your financial situation and ask for a free screening.
I'm praying for you that your health will began to flourish.

Well I can at least give it a try. I was told by a chiropractor once that they do not have any type of treatment for my problem. I guess I can call to see if something new has come up.

Thank you for your prayers!

Re: So my unemployment ran out...
Apply for Social Security Disability. If you are denied, appeal it with the help of a lawyer who specializes in such claims. You have put a lot of money into the system over the years so do not feel bad about it.


You can also work part time while on SSD. Do not feel like you just have to give up work. SS actually encourages people to try to get back in the workforce. They also have what is called the "Ticket to Work" program where they have employers who are involved with SS and getting people back into the workforce.


While on SSD........you will not lose it unless your earnings are once again considered competitive......currently approx. 900 gross per month average over a period of 9 months.


May God comfort you and help you in your recovery.


Consider perhaps some supplements......Vitamin D3, calcium, magnesium, etc.


You might be eligible for Link benefits to help purchase food......but the benefits vary from state to state.

Thanks for the info and encouragement! I may actually look into disability since I didn't know I could work while on them.

Re: So my unemployment ran out...
Like so many of you out there, my unemployment ran out recently. Unfortunately, my health has also taken a downturn this last few months and now I am honestly a little afraid that I will lose everything. My wife is also on unemployment, she has one more extension that just started. I am hoping I can find a low impact job that doesn't require much physical effort, but I imagine most of those jobs are already taken. I've looked and can't find much. I am considering doing some jewelry sales at the flea market on Saturdays, but that is dangerous because of the chance of theft.

So what do you guys suggest? I can only work about 20 hours a week due to health problems and cannot lift anything due to a herniated disc in my neck (C6-C7). I want to be productive and make a living and not be a burden to society, but I feel my options are limited. My skills are mainly sales and computer repair (minor, not networking). I feel for all of you out there in a similar situation. This is the hardest its ever been in our lifetimes. That doesn't mean we roll over and give up, though. I'm open to your ideas and suggestions...
 Quoting: Follower of YHWH

email me. I got very ill last year and know the ins and outs of SSI. got it on the first try with no lawyer. Now, I'm coming off of it as I have been recovering. I was lucky to also have a disability insurance policy to keep real money coming in, but SSI is better than nothing and you sound quite debilitated. The insurance company forced me to apply for Social Security which was then deducted from the insurance check. But it doesn't sound like you'll have to deal with that red tape. Email me. Perhaps I can call you to offer my experiences on how to deal with this stuff.

Brother,
I am not a fan of MD's and never go to them for care. However I believe that NUCCA Chiropractic care is in league with 'natural healing'. If the first few vertebrae are aligned properly then the whole spinal column will follow suit and send forth healing throughout the whole body. It all starts with properly aligning the upper cervical vertebra.
I'm praying for you brother.
