So frustrated-in tears

[Faith in Him]

Faux,

I am so sorry that you are going through this. I know it is exhausting. If I can help by doing research or making some phone calls for you, just let me know.

I have finished hyperhemeria radiation and the kids are back to school so I have pently of time on my hands.

Take care,
Tonya

I hate that this is happening to you. I had a biopsy done on my arm that I had the 16 nodes removed. It ended up being OK since it is a very shallow punch that she took from the area. I was concerned too but needed to find out what the spot was.

You shouldn't have to change your last name on your social security card...that is the first I heard of that. You can just prove your marriage with the certificate. I am a tax accoutant and have many clients who have never changed their names (families from India keep their maiden names) and many others do too. Social security mails a statement out a few months before your birthday with the available disability benefits listed on the document. I wish I lived closer and could get this together for you and go with you to the social security office! Everyone here has given you some wonderful information. I hope that you can find a dermatologist that will take this biopsy for you. The added stress of this can't be helping the viral problems. I'm sending you a big cyber hug and saying a prayer.
