Arachnoiditis | Long Term Disability Claim Tips

Arachnoiditis is caused by inflammation or damage to the arachnoid membrane surrounding your spinal cord. When the arachnoid lining is irritated, your immune system response can lead to its inflammation. Nerves passing from the spinal cord through the arachnoid lining are also affected, often causing abnormal nervous responses all over the body.

If you have arachnoiditis, you’re likely aware of how this debilitating disease can affect your ability to carry out daily activities. This can include your ability to continue working.
