Chronic Fatigue Sufferers Think Differently About Their Social Security Disability Application

Nancy Cavey — Thu, 30 Sep 2010 19:50:05 +0000

The Social Security Administration considers Chronic Fatigue as a recognized medical condition. But, nonetheless, it is difficult to prove that Chronic Fatigue is serious enough to justify the award of Social Security Disability benefits. Sharon Barrett, former Tampa Social Security staff attorney, knows that the more information that you include in your Chronic Fatigue Social Security Disability application about the physical problems you have and how it impacts your ability to do substantial gainful work, the easier it will be for the Social Security Administration to grant you your benefits.

Unfortunately, the diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue doesn’t make your case a slam dunk, but the Social Security Disability Administration will be looking at your file to determine not only whether you suffer from Chronic Fatigue, but how the side effects and the medication that you take and any other medical conditions that are commonly seen with Chronic Fatigue make you disabled.

So, for example, if you have irritable bowel syndrome as part of your Chronic Fatigue or depression, we, at Cavey and Barrett, help develop the medical evidence that establishes the severity of your symptoms, the impact those symptoms have on your functionality, and attain from your doctor a residual functional capacity form, documenting the objective basis for your diagnosis and your disability.

Social Security Disability Benefits: Back Fusions

Nancy Cavey — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 16:01:45 +0000

One of the most devastating conditions you can have is a back injury that results in a herniated or collapsed disc. As part of your treatment you might often only have to undergo a back fusion where your discs are fused.

Back fusions can improve your condition and help with back pain but, unfortunately, can possibly make you condition worse.

At Cavey and Barrett, we represent individuals who suffer from chronic back pain or have undergone surgery including back fusions.

If you are unable to work as a result of a herniated disc or your doctor has told you that you need a back fusion, you should immediately apply for disability. However, be prepared to be denied because 70% of all claims are turned down at the initial application stage.

When you get turned down for you back fusion in a Social Security Disability claim you should immediately appeal the disability denial. Many people who are denied Social Security Disability benefits for back fusions at the initial claims level or reconsideration level are later approved at the disability hearing level when they get to present their case to the administrative law judge.

If your claim for Social Security Disability benefits as a result of back fusion has been denied contact Social Security Disability expert, Sharon Barrett who can assist you with winning your Social Security Disability claim.
