I have been off the site for two days because of problems with "Fuzzy eyes. Difficulty looking up at the screen to see if there are any mistakes.

Read both of your questions. I have an article that was posted in the Journal of Medicine that I will past for you both about SSI or Disability Insurance:

ICD codes are used by everyone in the healthcare industry, including doctors, insurance companies and government agencies. They are used to identify and classify diagnosed diseases and conditions.

Prior to October 1, when diagnosing a patient with fibromyalgia, doctors had to use the general code 729.1 – Myalgia and myositis, unspecified. Any kind of muscle pain or inflammation could be included under that code. But now FM is recognized as a distinct entity with its own code: M79.7 – Fibromyalgia
Why Is This Important?

There are numerous potential benefits of a ICD-10-CM code for fibromyalgia, but four in particular quickly come to mind.

The fact that fibromyalgia has its own diagnostic code makes it all but impossible for doctors to continue to insist that it's not real. The World Health Organization and the U.S. Government have given it their official seal of approval.
The ICD-10-CM codes are used by insurance companies, Medicare and Medicaid when making reimbursement decisions. Up until now, some insurance companies have refused to cover treatments for fibromyalgia, insisting it was not a real disease. They can no longer make that claim
Although disability claims are not determined solely based on a diagnosis, having fibromyalgia recognized as a legitimate diagnosis will eliminate one reason sometimes used as a basis for denial and may make disability claims a little easier to win.

A distinct diagnostic code will improve consistency in fibromyalgia research. Ginevra Liptan, MD noted in her recent article in the National Pain Report, “The new code will also enable more accurate studies of fibromyalgia treatment outcomes, as the data for many of these observational studies are gathered by tracking diagnosis codes. Without its own diagnoses code, fibromyalgia studies have been hampered by watered down data from the inclusion of patients that did not actually have fibro, but some other illness causing muscle pain

The above article should make it much easier to pass the Disability Appeal.
