Hope and Help For Fatigue & Chronic IllnessAuthor: Institute For Neuro-Immune Medicine
Welcome to the Hope and Help for Fatigue and Chronic Illness Podcast. It's our mission to help people that have some really complicated illnesses. People that have post viral syndrome like long COVID and ME/CFS or chronic fatigue. Those that have had toxic exposures like gulf war illness, mold exposures, pesticides and heavy metals. These illnesses can present very similarly, they can actually look the same to your clinician. You may have fatigue, post exertional malaise, foggy brain and many other symptoms that seem to be common across many illnesses. Underneath all of these illnesses, the causes of the symptoms are very similar. We know first hand how hard it is to get access to meaningful information and care when you find yourself or a loved one here. It is our hope to give you, bit by bit, the knowledge and ideas that we have seen make a positive impact on individuals just like you. And that you will take all those threads and begin to weave back together a healthier person. Brought to you by the Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine where we have over 200 years of combined clinical experience in Neuro-Inflammatory disease.

The Fight for Disability Benefits: How People With ME/CFS and Long COVID Can Prepare with Edward Dabdoub, J.D., M.B.A.
Tuesday, 3 November, 2026

Edward Dabdoub shares how his firm built a specialized legal infrastructure specifically designed to level the playing field against insurance companies, why calling early — before a claim is denied — dramatically changes outcomes, and how his firm has not lost a single ME/CFS or long COVID disability case. The conversation covers the three most common tactics insurance companies use to deny chronic illness claims, the legal and medical evidence strategy that overwhelms insurance companies into paying, how to check your disability benefits without alerting your employer, and why the specific diagnosis matters far less than most patients think. Edward Dabdoub is the CEO and Founding Attorney of Dabdoub Law Firm, where he focuses on representing individuals entitled to disability benefits from insurance companies. He has extensive experience handling disability insurance claims and ERISA-governed long-term disability cases. Edward is a frequent speaker on disability insurance and ERISA matters for organizations such as the American Association for Justice and the Florida Association for Justice, and he also advises other attorneys in these areas. He graduated cum laude from the University of Miami School of Law, earned an MBA from Florida International University, and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from the University of Miami.
