► 06:10 - Email from [email protected]
I’m 45 and have been on LTD for over a year for chronic fatigue and numbness in my legs. I worked for 10 years as a real-estate agent and have a private long term disability policy. Now the insurance company says that my disability is not serious enough for me to be off work, but both my family doctor and my neurologist are doing tests and say that I can’t go back. The insurance company says that my payments will be stopped by spring. This is extremely stressful. What should I do?

► 19:00 - http://www.mydisabilityquestions.com - My husband was approved for short term disability for a heart condition that makes it impossible for him to exert any effort. His cardiologist wrote that he can’t do his occupation. He is an airplane mechanic. Last week we got a letter from his LTD insurer saying that they don’t think he is disabled from working. This was our second appeal, we already submitted letters from the cardiologist and family doctor. We’re not sure how to proceed. How can we get financial assistance?

► 23:40 - [email protected] - I’ve been on long term disability for almost 2 years now for severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. My case manager at the insurance company says that I should be able to return to work and my insurance will be cut off. My doctor and specialist both say that I cannot because of the seriousness of my condition. I’m 52 years old and I’m afraid that I won’t have any income when the insurance company cuts me off. Should I appeal this decision? What should I do?

► 26:30 http://www.mydisabilityquestions.com - My brother’s long-term disability claim was rejected, the insurance adjuster said he isn’t totally disabled. He is 32 and a licensed electrician. He had an accident at the cottage, he almost drowned and suffered brain damage. He lives with me and my wife because he can’t live on his own anymore. We are appealing his denial with the help of his neuropsychiatrist who thinks that the insurer wrong and that he is unable to work. Is there anything else we can do about his denial?
