🔹Denied LTD benefits as there is no objective medical evidence - 3:00
I had a procedure a few years ago and in the years since I've been experiencing extreme pain. There is no evidence that something went wrong but this reaction is ongoing and I've seen many specialists and doctors. I was cut off of LTD after 2 years as there is no clear evidence and diagnosis. What can I do?
