Breast cancer patients often face unique challenges in establishing disability under the Social Security Regulations. Because many if not most patients recover within one year of beginning treatment, Social Security often denies these cases without fully crediting the patient’s complaints. For example, after a mastectomy many women have prolonged pain and complications such as lymphedema long after their surgery. Further, the side effects of chemotherapy leave many women with extreme fatigue, as well as nausea and other disabling problems.
