I recently had an C&P exam at my local VA HOSPITAL for my back and Fibro. When the NP asked me about my back how far I can move I told her I had difficulties bending. I thought she would use a tool to measue me but she never did. Is this normal to not to use a tool? I had my ROM measured by a Chriprator a few weeks before that and it was allot worse then what she mesaured me at.
