Hi......high blood fat (high cholesterol) can be helped with diet, exercise and medication. Prediabetes is a great opportunity to change your diet and start exercising to prevent yourself from developing full blown diabetes. There is help for depression via medication and therapy, and I don't know if you've tried either of these.  There are many of us working with a herniated disc, but I know they can cause a lot of problems.  It seems like almost everyone I know has a herniated disc and they continue to work and enjoy the things they always have.  But everyone's different, and without your doctors help it's going to be difficult to get disability.  I would get a disability attorney to help you, they don't charge unless they get you on disability and then they take a part of the past due amount that you receive.  I wish you all the best with this.
