Peripheral vascular disease is a condition that, like ischemic coronary artery disease, involves the build of cholesterol-containing plaques along arterial walls. However, in peripheral vascular disease (aka peripheral arterial disease) the arteries that become blocked are those that lead to the stomach, kidneys, and extremities (legs, feet, and arms). Peripheral vascular disease is more likely to occur in individuals who smoke and consume a high fat, high cholesterol diet. Therefore, personal habits certainly play a role in the incidence of this disease. And, as with coronary artery disease, the treatment options for peripheral arterial disease may include stent placement and balloon angioplasty. Can a claim for social security disability or ssi be won on the basis of having this condition? Yes, because regardless of an individual's specific diagnosis, the social security administration is concerned with the extent to which an illness functionally restricts their day-to-day activities.
