Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia and Receiving Social Security Disability

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects your blood or bone marrow. It is evidenced by an abnormal accumulation of blood cells that are usually leukocytes (white blood cells).

Leukemia is used to refer to a variety of diseases. It is pathologically and clinically divided into groups and categories. The first division is into leukemia’s acute and chronic forms. Then, leukemia is divided according to the kind of blood cell that it affects. These two divisions are myelogenous and lymphocytic.

Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) is one of the types of lymphocytic leukemia. It affects your blood and bone marrow.

Acute lymphocytic leukemia gets its name from the word “acute” that indicates that the disease develops rapidly and affects immature blood cells, rather than mature blood cells. “Lymphocytic” is a reference to the white blood cells that the disease affects.

Acute lymphocytic leukemia is also known by other names. It is also called acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute childhood leukemia.

Although adults, especially those 65 and over, get this form of leukemia, it is the most common form of leukemia in young children. In fact, acute lymphocytic leukemia represents 80% of all the childhood acute leukemias. Most of the cases occur in children 3 – 7 years of age.

There are several effects that acute lymphocytic leukemia can have on you. Some of these are:

  • Severe or frequent nosebleeds
  • Shortness of breath
  • Fever
  • Weight loss
  • Bleeding from your gums
  • Fatigue, weakness or a general loss of energy
  • Infections that happen often
  • Skin that is pale
  • Loss of appetite
  • Swollen lymph nodes that cause lumps around and in your groin, stomach, underarm and neck.

These effects caused by acute lymphocytic leukemia can be debilitating. You or a loved one may be disabled and unable to work because of this disease.

You may be looking for help if this is the case. You may be searching for financial help.

Where will that financial assistance come from? Who can you turn to? Who can and will help you?

Have you, on behalf of your child with disability, or your loved one applied for that financial assistance from the Social Security Administration because of the disability caused by acute lymphocytic leukemia? Was your child with disability or your loved one denied by the Social Security Administration?

You or your loved one may plan on appealing the denial by the Social Security Administration. If this is what you decide to do, here is something for you to think about.

You will need a disability attorney like the one you will find at socialsecurityhome.com to help you in what can be a long and trying process. The reason this is true is because people who are represented by a disability lawyer are approved more often than those people without an attorney.

Getting Social Security Benefits For Abdominal Angina

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

When you hear the word, “angina” you probably think of problems with your heart. Angina, however, can also refer to abdominal pain.

Abdominal angina is postprandial abdominal pain that occurs if you have insufficient blood flow to meet mesenteric visceral demands. It is intermittent abdominal pain that frequently develops at a fixed time after eating.

There are other names for this discomfort and pain. Abdominal angina is also called bowelgina and intestinal angina.

The primary effect that abdominal angina will probably have on you is disabling central abdominal pain that comes 10-15 minutes after eating. This pain usually increases in intensity until it reaches a plateau. Then, it slowly goes away several hours after eating.

At the beginning, this pattern of pain occurs only after eating a large meal. However, over time, this pain develops even after small meals. You begin to associate eating a meal with pain.

Another way that abdominal angina will affect you is by causing significant weight loss. This is weight loss that comes without you trying to lose weight.

As abdominal angina grows more serious, the effects that it causes may make it hard for you to get and hold a job. You may not be able to work if you are suffering intense abdominal pain and weakness from losing a significant amount of weight.

The disability caused by abdominal angina may qualify you to receive Social Security disability benefits or disability benefits from the Social Security Administration. The experienced disability attorney at socialsecurityhome.com is the one who will give you the best advice concerning applying for disability benefits.

Does this apply to you? Are you or a loved one suffering from abdominal angina?

Is abdominal angina keeping you or your loved one from working? Is it the cause of your disability?

Do you or your loved one need assistance? Are you in need of financial help?

Have you or your loved one applied for that financial assistance from the Social Security Administration because of the disability caused by abdominal angina? Were you or your loved one denied by the Social Security Administration? 

If so, you may be wondering what to do now? You may wonder what options you have open to you.

One option that you or your loved one has is to appeal the denial by the Social Security Administration. If this is what you decide to do, here is something for you to keep in mind.

You or your loved one will need a dependable Social Security disability lawyer like the one atsocialsecurityhome.com to help and counsel you in what can be a long and trying process.
