What are mediations and why are they necessary for disability claims?

📧 Conflicting doctor's reports - 8:07
EMAIL from Help@DisabilityRights.ca: I applied for long-term disability after a serious injury. It was ultimately denied because my doctors’ reports were allegedly conflicting. While my treating GP says I can’t work due to continuing chronic pain, a specialist thinks there’s a small chance I might be able to return to work with extensive accommodations.

https://www.mydisabilityquestions.com: After being diagnosed with a degenerative disease about 3 years ago, I’ve undergone every kind of treatment and medication my doctors have prescribed. In the last year or so my condition has worsened. I’m exhausted all the time, and I can’t think straight. I was approved for short-term disability benefits but my claim for LTD was denied. I appealed twice but both appeals were rejected. What else can I do?
