Kidney transplant

I had a double nephrectomy and kidney transplant in September, 2015. I was on short term disability until December and thought I could return to work. I do event management at a convention center, very long hours and running around (center is 6 blocks long). My feet have been swelling up into clubs, I get sudden onsets of fatigue and muscle weakness, twitching and tremors. When my feet swell it can be so bad they they start to bruise. The job requires the long hours and long periods of standing/walking. My HR Director suggested looking into going back on short term disability (I've been back 6 months, but can't continue like this much longer) then on long term (work insurance covers me until I'm 65 at 60% of salary. But I would have to qualify for social security disability. Would I qualify?

I had a kidney and pancreas transplant on 5/13/16. I received a letter today from social security saying I have a phone interview in July about my end stage renal disease. I receive benefits now and what is this letter and when will it end?

is that availble in the philippines as well? i may need to undergo transplant but my problem is its really expansive will it be covered?

My husband had a kidney transplant in September 2013. Still getting disability now. He did just get a short review letter asking about surgeries since 2014. The transplant was before that. He did ask a women in the SSI office when it work end and she said his review was in 2016. I'm worried they will want him to pay back the money after his 12 months. Is this possible?

Good morning. I am 48 years old and in end stage renal failure. I am currently doing peritoneal dialysis at home at night and still trying to work during the day. I have been on the transplant list for 1 year. I have not applied for disability yet. If I wait until transplant to apply, will I be denied because I was not on disability before the transplant?

Hello,

My boyfriend had a kidney transplant in Oct 2013 and is receiving ss benefits. He went back to work part time about a yr after the transplant. Well they recently cut off the ss because they said he went over the allowed amount of income that he can make. My question is the medicare. Can he lose that too if he decides to continue to work? He needs the medicare for the anti-rejection medications that he is on as you may know they are very expensive and I don't think anyone would be able to afford them on their own.

I am 64 years old. I received a kidney transplant 2/19/16. I am receiving SS Disability benefits and will for 12 months. It will be very hard for me to get a job for one year until I turn 66. What are the chances that I will loose my benefits for that one year?

I will have a kidney transplant this year. If I receive short term disability payments (67%) of salary, will I still be able to apply for SSDI? Or must I wait until after I completely resign from my employer? I really want to go back to my job, even if it is just a little part time here and there.
