SALISBURY, NORTH CAROLINA Complete the following form if seeking help from a disability lawyer or attorney in Salisbury, North Carolina NC
Will it affect my north carolina disability case if I have not been seen by a doctor in over a year? Without a doubt it can. Whether or not you get approved for social security disability or SSI will ultimately come down to what your doctors--in your medical records--say about your medical condition. And not going to a doctor for a long time means that, from the social security administration's standpoint, your doctors and your records have very little to say. Of course, this is a problem in more than one way for many disability claimants since, at some point or another, many will no longer have access to medical care. In other words, many will have lost their health insurance and will find it very difficult to be seen for treatment other than at a free clinic or hospital emergency room.
Can you win disability for only certain impairments, or on the basis of any impairment?
Answer: The Social Security Administration's disability evaluation system does not focus on a claimant's diagnosis, but, rather, on the functional limitations a claimant has. In other words, the name of the condition is not the chief consideration. How the condition "affects and limits: the indiviual is the primary concern. So, yes, disability benefits can be won on the basis of nearly any condition provided that the condition is sufficiently limiting.
As these hypothetical examples show, disabling conditions can take a wide variety of forms.
"Type II Insulin Dependent Diabetic, Diabetic Retinapthy, High Cholestrol, Extreme Hypertension, Severe Depression, Suffer from: Panic Attacks, Anxiety and Agoraphobia."
"Psoriatic arthritis, fibromyalgia, asthma and severe depression. I cannot walk or move around more than about 10 minutes before the pain in my back and hip makes me sit down. Sitting for any length of time also causes my hip to burn all the way down my leg, The joints in my hands are always swollen and hurting. I get very little sleep which also makes it hard to work."
"Fibromyalgia, chronic pain, muscle weakness, sleep disturbance, brain fog, severe fatigue, migraines, IBS, Adenomyosis,internal endometriosis, excrutiating pain during mid cycle and cycle, chronic pelvic pain, chronic lower back pain, Depression, Anxiety"
