Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can One Consider Them Self As Disabled Due To A Heart Disease?
I have had quad bypass and after 9 months those became blocked and stents were placed in the original clogged arteries. I have had on and off chest pain for 4 years. Over the last 2 yrs have not been able to work. Would this qualify me as disabled?
I've read your query and understanding your concern.
I want to tell you that you are not disabled, you are suffering with disease that has slow down your activity. There is a lot of difference between being disabled and being slow in your work .
If you can do your routine work on your own even though slowely that means you are still independent. Keep your moral boost up , there is nothing that can beat your will power.
Stay healthy and Good Luck
