etihwr reacted to john999 in Disability Benefits Questionnaires
I had a C&P for an increase in DMII. I think my exam doctor just said that since I am on oral meds for control of glucose levels I should get 20%. If he filed out a disability questionnaire I did not see it and he signed the exam while I was there. He did not ask me about the two secondary conditions I have due to DMII. I guess I have to file for increase on them separately? Has anyone heard of Sleep Apnea secondary to DMII? Really, I wonder what kind of exam you get for DMII when the doctor does not ask about the obvious secondary conditions? I did not think he was personally hostile to me but just negligent. He only asked if I had been hospitalized due to the DMII. This is the guy who believes many vets get fat just to get higher DMII ratings.
