Maria, I'm so sorry. I've been on the wrong end of some doctors and their lack of help too. They often do more harm than good, don't they.  
If only they understood how a small statement, or lack of one, has such a devastating affect on our lives....it only takes a few minutes out of their day, but it makes or breaks us, sometimes for weeks, sometimes forever.
Good for you with going ahead with your appeal, and not letting them get you down. I'm very impressed with your drive. Go girl!
