Hello to all:
Two issues I'm not quite sure what happened:
1. Found out that a claim I had in for asthma secondary to Humira use for psoriatic arthritis went from being in Development to Administrative Review. I've sent in additional documents, and still have more records to collect, so I'm wondering what's going on??
2. The VARO ADDED a claim to the Asthma claim: an increase for psoriasis. Not that I mind this so much, but I've already had an increase just last year. In the initial claim for this, though, I mentioned that I was on weekly injections of Humira for both psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.
§4.118—Schedule of ratings–skin
7816 Psoriasis:
More than 40 percent of the entire body or more than 40 percent
of exposed areas affected, or; constant or near-constant systemic
therapy such as corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive drugs
required during the past 12-month period............................................................... 60
so I'm wondering if this is where the added claim came from?? Any clues out there? I've emailed my VSO but as usual, no response.
