Hello everyone,
My name is Eduardo and today I decided to include myself in this forum.I find myself in a situation where I need to find answers, support and know what to do.
I tell you, I am 31 years old (I will soon fulfill 32) and since the 11 I suffer from type 1 diabetes. More than 20 years have passed since then.
After my header, my endocrine and many others advised me to request disability, I finally did it at the beginning of this year.On this month I went to the valuation center and today I got the result.To my surprise, it was nothing positive.
The truth is that I had hopes, due to the answers given to me who treat me.They did not hesitate to get disability.However, the result was a degree of total disability of 15%.Of them, only 1 point in the social section.Apparently, you have to be under a bridge to value you better.
Today, my diabetes has caused chronic glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy.I have even gone through the laser and in the last review I already had another venita in the eye.Although it is not close to the worrying area, they have not put me laser for the moment.
Currently, and for 20 years, I put insulin (slow and fast, about 4-5 daily punctures).In addition, I take the metformin, prevention and dolxium pill.I also use Elebloc drops in my eyes because my ocular tension is at the limit.
As for my social situation, I have worked for the last five years in hospitality.I do not think it is the most appropriate place for diabetic people due to problems with meals, descents and ups.But there is no other option.Since October last year, I am unemployed and, unfortunately, I have not yet found work.I charge a unemployment of about 700 euros, which is very little.I even have to live at my parents' house because my situation does not give for more.
They have valued me in 1% in the social aspect.It's right?On the other hand, I need to reach 33% to obtain disability.Do we have to cut our legs or get blind to get it?It seems very strong because we have a problem and we want to improve our situation.
I requested the certificate because I am a diploma in teaching and ended this year.With all these complications, they value me so little.Has anyone gone well when requesting disability?What should I do now?I have a month to turn to, but what they have seen is what there is.
Therefore, I found this forum and I hope you can advise me.Thank you all for reading and I hope I have not bored them on this day that has not been very positive for me.
I reiterate, thank you!
