Chiropractors don’t put anyone on disability. Neither does a private physician. The process to get classified permanently disabled is quite rigid and includes evaluations by professionals contracting with Social Security.
Now you may be confusing that with short term disability policies purchased through ones employer or privately. But these companies (like UNUM) don’t make a profit by paying claims. And private companies won’t hesitate to investigate anyone suspected of faking.
Fibromyalgia: Understand the diagnosis process
Now obviously you don’t have fibromyalgia because you wouldn’t otherwise wax judgmental. Yes, it is a tricky disorder and there always have been malingerers and fakers. That’s not new or worse than ever.
The only minor surgery or illness is the one somebody else has.
BTW I’m no fan of chiropractic or lots of other “alternative” medicines.
