Have any of you been denied SSD because your spouse makes too much money? I've
only had PTC since June but I'm thinking of the long term ramifications because
of how it's effecting me daily. I had a LP shunt placed, but am still having low
pressure headaches everyday. I have permanent vision loss in my left eye but
not enough to be consider disabaling.

and are receiving Social Security Disability? This disease has been horrible for
me and I have had surgery 3 times for a shunt. They have tried twice to put a VP
shunt in my head with no success. I have a LP shunt now but I still suffer from
chronic migraine headaches. I have been off from work since September of last
year. Some days I am barely able to get out of the bed.
