Relief
I went to see a cardiologist this afternoon. It was very beneficial. Not only was he aware of the condition I have, but he also knows the doctor at Vanderbilt that diagnosed me and has a great deal of respect for him. He documented my heart rate rising by 70 beats per minute with me doing nothing more than standing up. That and the diagnosis from Vanderbilt was sufficient for him. He's going to dictate a letter into my medical file stating that I have limitations prohibiting sitting, standing, walking, driving, lifting, and bending over and that I am unable to work in any capacity at any job. At least that is what he promised to do. I should have the note from him on Monday and can start the appeal process on my disability claim. Having something that clear and stated that strongly that recently will be a huge part in attempting to get my insurance benefits reinstated. It may also help in getting Social Security disability approved as well.
Anyway, I appreciate everyone's thoughts, prayers, and well-wishes as I go through this bureaucratic nightmare.

I know you'll appreciate the deeper meanings in this image. Keep strong if you can, it's hard, so hard.... all I can do is count my blessings as I watch the next green bottle fall off the wall. We do what we can is all.
Take care and hopefully everything falls into place quickly.
Best wishes & God bless.
