  1. physical examination veteren is well developed well nourished male in no distress Active range with a gonimetrer is as follows forward flexion 0 to 30 degrees with pain at 30 degrees backward extension is 40 degrees with pain at 40 abduction 0 to 55 with pain thrughout whole motion interenal rotation 0 to 40 with pain and external rotation 0 to 55 degrees with pain With 3 repitions the range of motion is not additionally limited by pain fatigue weakness or lack of endurance. Im alittle confused with that last statement When in the history it states that Im a heliocopter mechanic and i have to take more frequent breaks to rest my shoulder and it takes me longer to complete jobs It also says it pops out 2 to 3 times daily which causes throbbing pain throughout the day. Im just worried because it also states that i denied fatigability and lack of endurance. Which i feel dumb if I said that but Im scared its going to hurt my rating I guess I just want to know how others view this C&P exam and what they think about what my outcome might be Tired of stressing bout the holidays My claim has been in the decision phase for the third time since july 12 2010. Starting to get old. Thanks for all the responses and help I get.
  2. 0 to 30 forward flexion 0 to 40 backward flexion 0 to 55 external rotation 0 to 40 internal rotation pain at 30 and 40 and pain throughout 0-55 degrees. My c file also explains that i have to to take frequent breaks at work and prolong jobs longer then normal because of shoulder boss being understanding. it then stated that motion is not additionally limited by pain fatigue weakness or lack of endurance How can even make sense after what they said previouly? Is this looking bad or good for my claim IM only receiveing 10% for a right foot injury
  3. I am currently recieveing 10% for a foot contusion i revived while on active duty I am current awaiting my deferred claims for my shoulder and my broken finger. My claim was filed on 7/12/2010 and was sent to the tiger team in nov/2/2011 which is how i got my 10% but then they deferred the last three things. This waiting game sucks my last C&P was dec 2 2011 for my shoulder which was found 0 to 30 forward flexion 0 to 40 backward flexion 0 to 55 external rotation 0 to 40 internal rotation pain throughout all the motions. It states while at work on my c-file that i have to take breaks for resting of my shoulder and it takes me longer to complete tasks but then it states that my motion is not additionally imited by pain,fatigue, weakness or lack of endurance. WTF isnt that was just what was stated? Is this going to get denied or will I stay at 10 % and get disappointed? Very stressfull
