AFFIRMED.
Before Torruella, Cyr and Stahl, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam.


1
We have carefully reviewed the record and briefs, and we conclude, for the reasons stated by the magistrate and district court, that the decision to deny benefits is supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole.


2
We have considered all of claimant's arguments and have found them without merit.  The ALJ adequately considered the combined effects of claimant's multiple impairments as well as her allegations of pain, and we see no basis to overturn the ALJ's assessment.   Frustaglia v. Secretary, 829 F.2d 192, 194-95 (1st Cir. 1987) (deference to ALJ credibility determination).  Any omission in one of the three hypothetical questions posed to the VE could have been corrected by claimant's attorney at the hearing, but, in any event, was not critical in view of the VE's testimony as a whole, the minimal treatment history for any mental impairment, the consulting doctors' reports, and claimant's own account of her social functioning, all of which supported the ALJ's conclusion that claimant could handle various simple jobs.  As for claimant's other attacks on the substantiality of the evidence, we essentially agree with the magistrate's report and district court opinion.

Affirmed.
