This link brings you to the diseases that would get you immediately approved for social security disability. Not all breast cancers are deemed eligibility for ssd. In my case Inflammatory bc was considered one of those diseases, and I was immediately approved without an attorney or an appeal. Check out the list and also search the rest of the site. It will give you the information you need.
