Question
Fat
A buddy of mine received his Big Brown Envelope and was highly disappointed.
He filed a claim with the following issues: left hip, left knee, left thigh, and Restless Leg Syndrome.
He was denied for the knee, hip, and RSL.
His wife asked me to look at the SOC and afterwards I was surprised by two things.
In bold letters there was a statement: FULL GRANT OF BENEFITS- the left femur stress fracture (previously claimed as left thigh condition) is currently being worked and a decision will be sent soon.
In addition, the denial for RSL stated: service connection is denied due to condition neither started or was caused by military duty. Also, RSL can't be secondarily connected to service connected left femur condition.
These two statements lead me to believe the left femur condition is going to be service connected when he receives the SOC for that issue.
What do you think?
