According to the Mayo Clinic, fibromyalgia is a medical disorder with several symptoms, including:
- Muscle and skeletal pain
- Fatigue and sleep issues
- Memory and mood issues
These symptoms are sometimes triggered after a physical injury or physically traumatic event, or they develop on their own over time. As a result, fibromyalgia is sometimes the medical condition that causes the need to apply for SSD benefits, or it can exist as part of an overall physical condition.
Other conditions associated with fibromyalgia are headaches, anxiety, depression and temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). Women develop fibromyalgia more often than men.
In the perfect world, fibromyalgia is documented by medical experts, but the truth is that many people don't have the resources to go to the specialists necessary, such as a rheumatologist, to confirm the condition.
Regardless of the level of care you have received for this condition, our Social Security disability benefit lawyers will work with your general practitioner or specialist to prepare the most convincing disability report possible.
