I have a DRO Hearing in October regarding my upper extremity peripheral neuropathy secondary to DMII caused by exposure to AO. In reading the decision is does not even make sense. One doctor said that the neuropathy was secondary to DMII and one doctor said it wasn't . In the original De Novo review the DRO said that my neuropathy was not due to DMII because is preceded in by many years. However, the VA granted SC for the PN of the lower extremities. The history of my PN onset is the same for both upper and lower extremities. It is almost as if the VA just split the difference between the two doctors. I think that reasonable doubt exists as to the cause of my PN. Does anyone agree?
