What are proven strategies for winning migraine headache Social Security disability claims?
As I discuss in this video, migraine headache claims can be challenging because there is no way for your doctor to “see” your migraine using an MRI or CT scan. Social Security judges are more comfortable approving cases where there are objective tests available - for example, a herniated disc can be visualize with an MRI, or a stroke can be visualized using an MRI or CT scan.
Our experience has been that you can win a migraine headache case if your claims file contains medical records from a specialist such as a neurologist or neuropsychologist, documentation that you have tried, without success, multiple medications, reports from your doctor that your headaches are frequent and unpredictable, and non-medical evidence from former co-workers or supervisors documenting job reliability problems.
Your testimony at your hearing also needs to be very believable and focused on reliability problems due to unpredictable headache occurrences.
You will face an uphill battle if your medical treatment records are only from your family doctor, or if you don’t have a firm diagnosis of migraines from a neurologist.

Ive been suffering for 30 years and so tired of these things. Ive tried everything. Ive been denied. This causes my depression and anxiety. Im about to give up. I lose vision my speech is slurred. My hands go numb. Im to the point were i dont want to live. Calling off work makes me feel so guilty. Its not. Just a headache. Ppl dont understand

@shannonw5218 5 лет назад

Keep applying. No way could you work a 8 hour shift without long breaks or missing many days of work. Most people are denied twice then a hearing. Good luck. They want you to give up.

@mulliganstew72 4 года назад

ashmedow I’m sorry you’re Going through it. I know what you mean regarding the disabling effects and how unreliable it makes us in work or any area of life. I’m eaten by guilt always. Makes the experience more painful & nobody sees.

@ohrl1 I tried them all, and I have very supportive doctors too. Only botox (and some painkillers) are somewhat effective. As effective that it's hard to give up on them, but there is no single moment where I behave normally, too strong phonophobia.

@Plajerity 3 года назад

It's a human thing to look for understanding and acceptance in society. But there is no way you can find it with a migraine, if the problem is serious. Why people should understand? I didn't undestand what's going on with me. I tried to blame myself, thought it's my laziness that I qualified for dream studies and now I'm not able to sit and learn for longer time. Then when I got kicked out, I tried to work - it was somewhat successful for a couple of months until migraine got more serious. I still don't understand what's going on and can't fully accept, that I can't even work, have my own family, listen to music, play my favourite computer game, etc. Sometimes I hear from my family that someone is without a leg and does fine, even has a job. Good, brain seems more important than a leg or two. Then they point out some famous actor/celebrity, who also has a migraine. I'm saying that it's like with a cancer. One is very mild and can be cured. Others get information about the cancer and are dead within a few days. Migraine is not deadly (probably), but can be serious too. And I don't expect that someone will understand it. Not anymore. I'm still trying to understand my own migraine by myself.

I have suffered from migraines for years now. People don't understand, I totally get it. They are disabling and a hinderance on life. Medication makes me feel like I am having a heart attack and fatigued and drained. It is definitely a disability.

@kassandraragsdale2411 7 лет назад

Thank you, thank you, thank you! My hearing is Sept. 2017....and it has been a horrific uphill battle. I worked for 27 years and would still work if my doctor had not pulled me off the job. I needed this video right now. Thank you!

Kassandra, glad you found it helpful.

@inconspicuousjoy2605 3 года назад

I just had an exam. At the end the dr said "ok I'll get this sent over. You don't have to do anything else just make sure you get your mail"

@marydeavers7540 7 лет назад

All your videos are very helpful!! Could you tell me if diabetic nerve damage in the legs and feet is a Social security listing and how a person with this condition would get approved.

@Plajerity 3 года назад

Nice video, so I'd like to point out one thing. The audience for this video is mostly people with a migraine. Some of them (like me) have a serious phonophobia. If you speak with lower voice, the same sound pressure level is less audible (harder to understand), but hurst the same as higher pitch. My case is pretty extreme (chronic migraine, not cTTH), but I think many people with episodic migraine don't know what to do during attack (if it's long and not too severe) and may look for a video on youtube about migraine. Anyway, thank you for a video. Many people around me pressured me to amplify my disease - they claim I can't win with only migraine as disability. And they might be right, but putting the focus on unsignificant mental disorder, which is totally natural thing when a disease doesn't let you live lowers the significance of migraine itself. I wonder how to present my case in the court. My focus goes down with time much faster than in case of healthy people. Expert neurologist gave a negative opinion, but it's a really shitty one. I expect she didn't look at my papers and we wasn't really able to communicate (happens, especially with older people who has a problem with hearing, aound 50% of the time - nothing I can do about that). Do you think I should start with her mistakes (as they are very easy to prove), or like always present how migraine was changing through my life and how does it affect me. P.S. In Poland, with 3 expert witnesses, after 2 years, I'm still waiting for the date of first hearing. Does it take so long in other countries too? It seems that COVID won't make it any shorter, but as for now it didn't influance waiting time yet.

How am I supposed to go to a doctor for testing if I can't afford to go to the doctor? No insurance, no job - what are my options for this? It's seems also impossible!

@LESHAYkhj 7 лет назад

Hi, I suffer from chronic migraines and several mental health issues. I'm 23 and recently applied for dac ssdi. Most days I'm stuck in bed due to the pain. the rare days I don't have a migraine, my medications leave me unable to function. I have plenty of medical records dating from the age of 9 to 18. Unfortunately I was no longer insured after 18 so I stopped going to the doctors. Sorry for the long message but what are my odds of getting approved.

@lavashow4485 4 года назад

Hi I have a question, so I am currently 18 years old, when I was a child from the age 3-5 I can’t really remember I cracked my head open 2 times I only fully remember the one time I cracked my head open and my childhood is a little hazy after that. In grade school I experienced a couple more head injuries and contusions to the brain, when I reached high school sophomore year I was playing gym and I cracked my nose and broke both sides and got a mild to severe concussion this is what I do believe that really did me in and set in my migraine problems, I had to miss 10-15 days of school due to migraine problems and see a neurologist every month one time so that would only add onto the time missed, my neurologist says that I do NOT want to get another concussion or brain contusion, or any other significant damage to my brain because it may cripple me even more to the point of no return. I still am seeing a neurologist almost 3 years later and I developed a obsessive compulsive disorder it distracts me from daily activities and it causes me to have migraines when things are not to my liking. I get migraines 2-4 times a week and pain scale range from 6-8 I have tried almost everything with medication and it is very time consuming and dreadful to see it not working. Do you have any advice on whether you think I would qualify for disability.

@showmeyourdaleel6568 4 года назад

How about you don’t meet the list on one particular issue, but you have a variety of issues (physical and mental) and take a lot of medications. Will social security take into consideration your entire health history into account?

I have Todd's Syndrome caused by an antidepressant overdose, I almost died. As well, I have many other serious sleep, digestive, autonomic dysfunctions and psychological issues. My neurologist suspects migraine activity with possible seizures. I need to reapply after three years and a trial denial based on the illogical determination that I would only miss 3 days a month when I have records that that is not the case. He also threw out my RFC forms because he thought that the doctors "liked me too much." The case did not have the Todd's syndrome diagnosis at the time. Is reapplying an option?

@falloutman565 3 года назад

Does this apply to occipital neuralgia? It’s a very very painful condition. It’s in the back of my head and causes me to have to go to a dark room lay down and I feel like I’m going to throw up. You can see on my MRI somethings wrong with the nerves. It’s not a headache it’s like trigamtial or miofaciacial syndrome . My mri says possibly MS or demyelination or vasculitus. I have a appointment with neurologist in October FINALLY after 4 years. You never know what’s going to trigger the pain and it’s pain not a headache in the back of the head and on the side of my head going into my eye.

@showmeyourdaleel6568 4 года назад

How about a PA or NP in a specialist office? Do they count?

@damienethelbah289 Год назад

How much does age play into these cases? I have a cousin in her 20s that has them often and I know she has tried different things, but she is young with a graduate degree, so would it even be worth a shot?

@ssdattorney 6 лет назад

Age is a huge factor. It is very difficult - almost impossible - to win if you are in your 20's, unless you have a life threatening or life limiting level condition.

@kellyharris455 5 месяцев назад

I have been suffering from migraines for 7 years, had multiple CTA scans and MRI scans found out. I have an aneurysm behind my left eye and a cyst that has apparently ruptured behind my left eye. Meaning I had a silent stroke. I am 34 years old and I have an appointment this week for Ssi with a medical doctor. Any advice

@ssdattorney 5 месяцев назад

At 34 you are going to have an uphill battle. I would ask your doctor to address your functional limitations in very specific terms in a narrative report.
