The size of your SSDI benefit checks depends on your prior income. Basically, the more you paid into the system, the more you will be able to draw out of it once you are declared disabled and awarded benefits. The average monthly benefit paid out for all disability recipients in November 2010 was $1,067.
Mastoiditis may occur as a complication of acute or chronic otitis media. Acute otitis media (AOM), an acute illness marked by the presence of middle ear fluid and inflammation of the mucosa that lines the middle ear space, is discussed separately. (See Acute otitis media in adults (suppurative and serous).)
What is Mastoiditis? Mastoiditis, the infection of mastoid bone just behind the ear, is often the result of middle ear infections (acute otitis media) spreading to the surrounding bones. Mastoid process is the conical prominence that extends from the temporal bone, just behind where the ear is located.
