I need help finding a doctor to sign a permanent disability form. My primary care physician (PCP) refuses to sign it, and I have severe health issues including Fibromyalgia, Lupus, IBS, and GERD, which have forced me to stop working since August 2022. My PCP wants my rheumatologist to make the request for permanent disability, but I don't understand why they are passing the responsibility back and forth. Where can I find a doctor who will sign the permanent disability form?
