Help please Need advice

Today has been interesting. For the past few years I feel like just because I can talk very well to some people they think I have perfect hearing or gives them the right to discriminate against me because of my hearing. I do not see myself as a handicapped or a person with a disability (except for my leg). But that doesn't mean that I don't want to be treated with disrespect either. Last year I filed for disability because of leg pain and plus being deaf/hard of hearing with leg problems doesn't allow for too many job opportunities. I got denied because since being pregnant and not being able to have an xray on my hip. I was told I needed to file an appeal and see how that goes. I went to the Social Security Office today to pick up a packet for an appeal. Well my husband says will you be okay if I go help these people that were broken down, I said "yeah sure as long as I can hear them call my number". Well.....they had a tv that listed the number they are working with and it is supposed to change when it's the next person's turn (found this out today). While waiting the numbers are changing correctly, but when it gets to my number it doesn't change and then I barely hear the lady say the next person's number in line after me. At this point my husband appears at the door and says they just called your number and I say well they just called the person after me too. So we wait until the next person becomes available to talk to her. She gets finished with a couple and so I walk over ASAP WITH A CAIN and try to explain the situation and get told to "SIT BACK DOWN I DID NOT CALL YOU", I explain the situation and she again says "SIT BACK DOWN I DID NOT CALL YOU", my husband tries to explain and get's the same response, so I ask what am I supposed to do "GO SIT BACK DOWN". She was very rude. Then I sit back down my husband ready to beat the mess out of them for treating me like that, I told him to calm down. After she finished talking to someone else behind the wall and laughing and having a break, she asked for the next person in line. By this time I'd had enough and went outside to call the person that was my case worker to begin with and let them know of the situation. Well then after 10 minutes it seems when I can't get anyone, my husband appears and says "come on", I said "NO I'm NOT GOING BACK IN THERE". He tells me a manager wants to speak to me. I then say okay in that case I'll go in. Then she tells me that next time "if you don't have an escort you need to tell them your hard of hearing/deaf and tell them to speak up and tell them your number". I left and was like what in the world. I have to accomodate them and they are FREAKING SOCIAL SECURITY. THIS IS CRAZY ALL BECAUSE I CAN TALK PLAIN TO SOME THEY CHOOSE TO ACT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S B.S. I've had enough of this kind of crap.
