While I was in the Army at Ft. Eustis Va I fractured my left colorbone this was in 1973. I was service conected at 0% 2004. I appealed this and after over 2 years it is now at the DRO (decision reveiw officer). They sent me to C&P this monday. I had xrays and then the C&P with the doctor. I have bad pain shooting from the colorbone into my shoulder. I can't lift shoulder but half way up. The doctor ask me to go for a MRI of course I said yes. My Mri is this coming monday. My question is is there a chance I might get abetter rating than 0%. And why the MRI? Thanks for any help! Les

Yes,there a chance you could get your rating raised.MRI shows a lot more than Xrays.

They are looking for a link betweent he shoulder and clavicle. Either a vessel or nerve.

Get a copy of the radiologist repots the day after the MRI is taken.

    Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title. I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story.

    Again – Make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.

    exclamation-mark-orange-gold.jpg How To Post

    Post a clear title like

    ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of  ‘I have a question."

    This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial of your claim?”

    Note:

    Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. The review requirement will usually be removed by the 6th post. However, we reserve the right to keep anyone on moderator preview.

    This process allows us to remove spam and other junk posts before hitting the board. We want to keep the focus on VA Claims, and this helps us do that.
