Question
What kind of information to be used to support my Fibromyalgia claim when there are no tests/measurements to show how much pain and fatigue I am limited by?
Answer
Erin, this is a typical strategy used by disability insurance carriers when it comes to Fibromyalgia. There are standardized functional tests that can be utilized to provide “objective†restrictions and limitations. Please feel free to contact our office to discuss your claim in further detail.
