Deferred For Medical Poinion "opinion Recived"

[mrstix]

I'll filed this claim June of 2006.I had my C&P Sept. 2006 claim for right knee was deferred for medical opinion on May of 2007.This is the doctor's opinion

*I feel that in compairing the patient's orthopedic consult from Sept. 19th 2006 with findings of medial compartment arthritis, as well as the patient's very specific complaints in 1972 and 1973 of a locking sensation, pain and catching, it is at least as likely as not that his current knee condition is related to the treatment noted in the service medical records."

How does this sound to you guy's? A Go or No Go?

Any idea on a rateing for knee that's in pretty bad shape going by my C&P exam.

xray's show DJD PRETTY Bad.

Thanks mrstix
