Arnold chiari malformation can also cause motor problems, motor weakness, visual problems and trouble swallowing. Very often, these symptoms may go undiagnosed due to the combination of symptoms involved with Arnold-Chiari Malformation as well as the lack of knowledge available for dealing with the condition.

Can you win social security disability or SSI disability benefits on the basis of arnold-chiari malformation?

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.
