Both are treatable!: Both are treatable! you should not drop out. Are you being treated by specialists in rheumatology for your arthritis, or a psychiatrist for depression? If not, i would not endorse your disability. You may take this as harsh, but over the past 4 years , i've had a six-fold increase in disability claims. I only endorse one tenth!
