Questione giuridica chiave
Whether chronic fatigue/neurasthenia without objective organic or psychiatric substrate is disabling for IV purposes
Decisione estratta
Such syndromal complaints may be assessed under the rules developed for somatoform pain disorders; in this case the medical record did not justify a continuing full work incapacity beyond April 2005.
Motivazione estratta
The Court accepted a documented 50% incapacity until the RAD examination, but held that the prognostic increase to full capacity became reasonable after three months; the morbidity criteria were not met for a longer entitlement.
