SSDI

I had a heart attack and stroke in Jan 2025. My question is if SSDI is possibly going to accept my condition as a permanent disability. I don't think I can work because of my EF being low, my very strong fatigue and dizziness, makes my life so very fragile. Anyone with experience with SSDI, I'd appreciate any advice you might have.

    I'm sorry to hear what you've been going through.
    Many in this community have applied for SSDI, and hopefully some will share their experiences here.
    I will say the process can be a bit daunting, some individuals get approved on their first try while others are on their second or third appeal.
    Keep in mind that no two cases are the same.
    I'm including few articles that may provide some helpful information: https://heart-failure.net/resources-ssdi and https://heart-failure.net/resources-disability
    I wish you all the best, Doreen (Team Member)
