Breast Cancer Social Security Disability Benefits
Breast cancer can create a tremendous impact on the life of a woman who has been diagnosed with the disease. Even with successful treatment, a person’s ability to lead a normal life can be seriously impaired. Every treatment option has various side effects that can be debilitating:
- Surgery — Mastectomy, lumpectomy and lymph node removal are several of the surgeries available to help fight breast cancer. Risks associated with surgery include infection, fluid collection, numbness, heightened sensitivity and scarring.
- Chemotherapy — Chemotherapy relies on the introduction of medicines designed to weaken and kill cancer cells into the body. These medicines circulate throughout the entire body and cause very serious side effects.
- Radiation therapy— Radiation therapy is a more targeted form of therapy than many people imagine. Even so, healthy cells can be affected by radiation treatment.
These and other forms of treatment are often used in conjunction. This can create a compounding of side effects that can have a serious and disabling effect on your life. Ongoing issues such as infection can require repeated hospital stays.
Having an attorney who understands how to turn the impact your breast cancer has had on your life into a successful application for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits is your best chance for securing real help.
