early withdrawl penalty IRA - disabled, proof?

I have Fibromyalgia and Anxiety disorder, I have not worked for 2 years because of the pain and anxiety.  I have a claim with Social security that has lasted 2 years.  I have a hearing in May.  I asked my doctor to write up something for me since my fibro is non curable (have has since 2013 gets worse every year.) My doctor said she can state my diagnosis and that I have not worked in 2 years.  She said cannot write that I can never work again or whatever the terminology is used by IRS.  Will what she writes be sufficient and do I send it along with my taxes or do they ask for it later?   I just dont want to submit it and it is not enough and then I already used my refund money.  Or do they do audit or ask for proof before you would get refund?  Just so confused what I should do.  Also can the money I took out be used for anything or does it have to be medical supplies?
