Disability for Fibromyalgia in Houston, Texas: How to Qualify

Get Social Security to Understand that You Need Help

When you’re living with Fibromyalgia, the pain can hit any time. You can’t prepare for it. It’s hard to treat it.

And other people just don’t understand it. You don’t look like anything’s wrong. They can’t feel what you feel.

If you try to explain how your medical condition prevents you from working, some people won’t believe it. Worst of all, Social Security might dismiss it, too, when you try to apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits.

But those benefits can save you from financial ruin, let you focus on your health and help you move forward with your life.

What should you do?

You can get disability income with fibromyalgia—and qualify for Medicare or Medicaid along with it. You just need to be careful how you present your health problems to Social Security.

Fibromyalgia Symptoms that Can Qualify You for Social Security Disability

Fibromyalgia symptoms can be different in different people and change over time.

You’ll need to prove that you have severe forms of symptoms like these:

And this is just a sample. You could still qualify with other symptoms.
