I suffered for 6 years with severe IBD. I finally had a proctocolectomy and have a permanent ilieostomy. Additionally, ive had several partial blockages, Chronic fatigue, joint pain and fibromyalgia. I was finally approved for ssdi, but i know a cdr is coming soon.
I was told the cdr would happen around 18-22 months. However, I've since been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, major depression and anxiety. We shall see what transpires. I've had several partial blockages and paralytic ilieus and can't keep weight on.
It depends on the condition. For example, for organ transplantation with 1 year disability approval, it is likely to be in 1 -2 years. It can be as long as 10 years, or never, for example, a person who's been deaf from birth (although they generally get one review when they reach adulthood).
@@DisabilityExamsI have a question,I had colon cancer in 2015 stage 1 which the doctor at the time had to resection my colon he took 1 foot out of my colon now because of this I have loose bowel movement making me go to the restroom multiple times a day during my working hours which I have had to ask for accommodation for it. I have a feeling that I have a thing called short bowel syndrome ,I have never been diagnosed for short bowel syndrome and my doctor never mentioned it .which also doesn't help that I have no glabber with bile issue. So would I qualify to get ssdi?
Can you do one in greater detail about IBD and disability? Is it just the frequency of bathroom breaks? Or also the anemia, constant pain, severe fatigue, time required for juggling doctors appointments, infusions of biologicals, infusions of iron, transfusions?
Not sure if you watched any of Attorney Jonathan Ginsberg channel. He has an upload titled something like “ how to prove you would not be a reliable employee” which talks about how Social Security considers things, such as unscheduled breaks, excessive absences, and off task behavior as three issues which can be used as an argument in favor of disability. I watch his channel, and attorney Walter Hnot and have learned a lot of helpful info. But with your specific question, I think Jonathan Ginsberg might be helpful if you haven’t seen it already. Maybe Dr Foster will address this as well and I hope he sees your comment :-)
I should have been clearer - it's the whole picture, but what I have learned from disability attorneys is they often win approval in Social Security cases based on bathroom breaks. When it comes to fatigue, it's important to differentiate tiredness - which is not considered disabling, from fatigue, which Social Security can consider disabling. Tiredness is what you experience when you haven't had enough sleep. Fatigue is what you experience when you've exerted yourself so much you have difficulty continuing. Many conditions, such as marked anemia, serious lung disease, or heart failure can cause fatigue that Social Security considers significant. You'll find fatigue included in several of Social Security's Listing of Impairments.
Dr Foster, I’m sure we were all looking forward to your next video next week about frequent bathroom breaks. In some of our cases, the frequent breaks might be used not necessarily for diarrhea or urinary, but vomiting due to Gerd caused by gastroparesis/digestive system, motility issues.
Good point. Really, anything that temporarily incapacitates you frequently during the work day could result in Social Security considering you disabled, be that bathroom breaks, fainting spells, severe dizzy spells, etc..
Was wondering how one of my issues would be looked at by SSA for an SSDI claim. Diagnosed with an untreated Transverse myelitis at T10, resulting in fecal incontinence, constant balance issues, and right leg neuropathy. Two biofeedback studies over the decade. Next looking at electrical control systems surgery.
Transverse myelitis is a terrible condition. I've examined two people with it for Social Security, and both were disabled in my opinion (I do NOT make the final determination in Social Security cases). It sounds like you have a good chance of qualifying.
Yes!! Severe fatigue. I get pain in stomach feels like cramps. I don’t know what to eat anymore. I am also swelled up. I’m afraid to eat. Also I go more one day and less the next.

Oh my gosh I was going to request this. Thanks!
You're welcome - hope it helped.

You mentioned you finally got approved. How soon after does SSA do a CDR after approval?
I was told the cdr would happen around 18-22 months. However, I've since been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, major depression and anxiety. We shall see what transpires. I've had several partial blockages and paralytic ilieus and can't keep weight on.

What is a csr?

What about having your large intestines removed due to colon cancer and diarrhea following each meal?
That may qualify. You want to keep a record and have firm numbers on how often and how long you need bathroom breaks during a work day.
