What exactly is lumbar strain? That makes it sound temp.
I tried to claim sciatica but was denied then with the NOD it was approved but changed to lumbar strain. However, the
approval did say no re-exams needed since the condition is not expected to improve.
My medical record I had "+ sciatica" remarks. I have lots of lower back issues and finally had a lumbar mri which revealed lots of buldging disks also at my S1..
Isn't lumbar strain and sciatica different? Would I mess myself up by filing or re-opening my claim for Sciatica and lumbar DDD? I am rated for Cervical DDD.
