SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY, SSI FOR VERTIGO

Can you get disability for vertigo?


Vertigo is sometimes listed on a claimant's application for social security disability benefits, usually in connection to an unspecified inner ear problem or meniere's disease.

Vertigo is usually caused by something harmless such as a virus. However vertigo may also be an indicator of more serious conditions such as Meniere’s disease, stroke, tumors, or drug toxicities. Traumatic brain trauma or skull fractures may also lead to Vertigo. They symptoms of vertigo include dizziness, motion sickness, or nausea, which may result in an inability to stand or walk. Obviously, vertigo can severely limit an individual’s ability engage in daily activities including work activity.

Can vertigo influence the outcome of a disability claim? Potentially, yes, since vertigo may eliminate the ability to work in heights and in proximity to certain hazards.

To be eligible for disability benefits, it must be shown, via a claimant's medical records, that the claimant cannot perform their past work, or any other type of work. It must be also be shown that their disability has lasted, or will last, for at least twelve months.
