Arthritis and Social Security Disability- Tips
There is no question that is becoming much harder to win your Social Security Disability case.
You must make sure that you do everything you can to present a strong case to the Administrative Law Judge.
Arthritis is devastating disease that severely limits your ability to function.
However, it is not enough to just testify that you have problems using your hands, or that you cannot stand or walk long periods because of your arthritis.
You have to approach your case from several different levels.
Make sure that you have witnesses who will write strong letters explaining what they notice about your ability to handle, finger and feel items, and what they observe regarding specific times for standing, walking and lifting. What do they notice about your need to elevate your feet and legs?
Make sure you have xrays or mri’s of your hands, knees, feet, back or hips.
Make sure that your doctor conducts a thorough exam of your hands, knees, feet, back, or hips.
Make sure that you tell your doctor about your limitations regarding walking, standing, and lifting.
Make sure that you tell your doctor about your symptoms such as swelling, pain, and inflammation.
If appropriate, ask your doctor if they will prescribe a brace, cane or walker to assist you with walking and standing.
Everything counts so do not forget to cover all the bases.
