Description
Plaintiff-Appellant Carmen Celaya appeals the district courts grant of summary judgment to Defendant-Appellee Commissioner of Social Security denying Celayas application for supplemental security and disability benefits. Celaya, acting pro se through the initial hearing, asserted an inability to work due to diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, dizziness, headaches, foot pain, fatigue, and, she asserts, at least implicitly obesity. She alleges that the district court overlooked six errors by the ALJ. The most important of these regarded the failure to credit the significance of her obesity, especially as related to her ability to return to work. Because we find that the ALJ did not meet his obligation to develop the record, we reverse the district courts decision and remand for further development of the record, particularly in respect to claimants obesity.
