In this episode, I answer two questions:

1. Gladys writes to say that she has bilateral carpel tunnel syndrome but has been turned down twice by Social Security. She has returned to work and has been able to work because of regular shots she is getting from her doctor. Gladys will be retiring in June, 2006 and wants to know if she has a chance at winning

2. Sandy writes to say that she has been working part time for several years and only has 18 credits and therefore does not meet the non-medical qualifications for Title II. I assume that her husband earns enough that Sandy would not qualify for SSI. She wants to know what she should do to try to qualify for Title II disability.
