Question
*Bergie*
Listen to this,
Earlier I got a phone call from the VARO. I filed a NOD regarding a denial for "swelling in my lower legs" that was eventually diagnosed as chronic venous insufficiency. It would seem that acording to them my condition matches "sciatic nerve paralysis". They claim that when they put it into the computer that is what it closely matched up to. I don't for the life of me see how they got that but they said that is what they are rating it under. I was unable to really talk so unfortunately I couldn't ask them about matching the symptoms up with a vascular condition such as vericose veins. Which it actually matches up with. I'm now going to have to request a DRO hearing to try to get my point accross to them. This really sucks
