There is no disease or condition that automatically qualifies for disability.  The key to getting disability is being able to prove that you cannot do any kind of work on a regular basis (i.e., work a normal schedule).

Go to Allsup.com, they have a guideline for spinal cord injuries. If I remember right having Spinal Stenosis is one of their 4 conditions that make it a hell of a lot easier to get than not. But the previous answer is also correct, that you cant be able to do any kind of work, and I mean ANY kind of work, but the fact that you have proof of the stenosis will be a big step in the right way. Hope I helped?
