Chronic Pain
Fibromyalgia (often called fibromyositis and myofascial pain syndrome) can be a challenging case to prove before the Social Security Administration, but at Binder & Binder®, we are ready to fight for our clients. We have achieved a record of success in fibromyalgia cases, as well as other Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income matters.
The disease is marked by long-term pain throughout the body, including the muscles, tender joints and soft tissue. Suffers often feel extreme fatigue and pain — so much so, in fact, that they cannot hold down a normal, competitive five-day-a-week, eight-hour-a-day job.
Fibromyalgia and the SSA
A fibromyalgia diagnosis can challenge those trying to get SSD benefits. One is the nature of the disease itself. The causes of fibromyalgia are not yet clearly understood, so sometimes examiners are unable to classify these cases, and sometimes doubts are raised about its existence.
Many of our clients suffer with fibromyalgia in addition to another serious illness or disability, like orthopedic injuries or other musculoskeletal problems. If you suffer from more than one illness or type of pain, we will make sure to keep the complete picture in perspective. This may increase your chance of winning your claim.
