Headaches 

The problem with presenting this impairment to the Social Security Administration is that it is usually self-reported.  Unless your headaches are being caused by a tumor or a head injury, there is usually no way for an objective medical test to show that you are having headaches.  However, it is still possible to prove that headaches are disabling.  How often do you have headaches, how long do they last, and how severe are your headaches – these  are the most important questions that must be answered.  Migraines can interfere with your ability to work and the Social Security Administration recognizes this impairment if supported by the medical evidence.  Medical evidence from your neurologist is crucial to establishing this impairment.
