Menieres Disease Disability Attorney

by

Social Security Disability has a listing for Meniere’s Disease, it requires the following:

Disturbance of labyrinth-vestibular function characterized by a history of frequent attacks of balance disturbance, tinnitus, and progressive loss of hearing: with both A and B:

A. Disturbed function of  vestibular labyrinth demonstrated by caloric or other vestibular tests; and

B. Hearing loss established by audiometry.

Meniere’s Disease disease effects a persons ability to balance, the attacks come and go, with no set time frequency.  Should the attacks become frequent it is nearly impossible for a person to be gainfully employed. An attack while driving a large truck, using a sharp instrument or large construction equipment could have catastrophic consequences.   

There is currently a test to determine Menieres Disease, it is called ENG. It is important to attempt to have this test performed on yourself, should you wish to pursue a disability claim. There are many side effects to the disease, including nausea, vomiting and falling down.

Should you need assistance in your disability claim, please give my law office a call anytime  Monday through Friday at  toll free (877) 271-2633 or local at (615) 308-2633. I look forward to hearing from you.

Renal disease is a very medical records specific listing.

It is a good thing to keep a list of the activities, including daily activities that you can no longer to as a result of this disease. Your daily life and how your symptoms affect it will be very important to the Social Security Disability under this listing.

Arterial Disease Disability Attorney

by

Arterial Disease requires the following from the disability listing at Social Security:

A. Intermittent claudication with failure to visualize the common femoral or deep femoral artery in one extremity, (as shown by medical records); or

B. Intermittent claudication with marked impairment of peripheral arterial circulation as determined by Doppler studies showing:

         1. Resting ankle/brachial systolic blood pressure ratio of less than 0.50; or

         2. Decrease in systolic blood pressure at the ankle on exercise of 50 percent or more of the pre-exercise level at the ankle, and requiring 10 minutes or more to return to pre-exercise level.

Arterial Disease is disabling in that it causes the arteries to some parts of the body to be cut off of blood flow, without proper blood flow those parts of the body will essentially die and require amputation. Many times I have seen this disease as a result of diabetes. Another result of the disease is clotting, when the blood clots and does not flow to a part of the body it becomes very painful to the claimant, and thus the pain to a leg or foot becomes so bad that the person cannot walk or walk effectively enough to sustain a job.

The medication given to many claimants with arterial Disease is Coumadin, the problem with this medication and working is, should you receive even a small cut you could bleed to death. Coumadin is a blood thinner, and while it is necessary for to help with Arterial Disease, it can be deadly if you receive a cut and do not attend to it properly.

Should you need assistance in your claim Arterial Disease disability claim, please give me a call, I would be pleased to speak with you. You may reach me anytime at toll free 1 (877) 271-2633 Monday through Saturday or local at (615) 308-2633.
