Hi, I hope someone can please help me. I have been waiting for almost 3 years for SSI hearing with ADJ and just received a letter that Feb 15 I will have my appeal hearing. Meanwhile, I was just asked if I would like to settle a claim due to injury for car accident . I am 20 yers old and was injured 2 years ago. I have been waiting ad really not sure what to do ? If I accept the settle than I may not be eligible for SSI possibly form what I have been reading.

I have been diagnosed with AS and have progressively gotten worse over the course of the year. Currently I work as a nurse but the fatigue, back pain, leg pain & foot pain is wearing on me. All I am truly able to do is go to work & crash when I get home. I am on the 4th injection that doesn't seem like it is helping at all either. I am on the 2nd course of steroids & they are barely touching anything also. I feel like I am barely functioning at work & am so frustrated I don't know what to do.
