Nervous About C&p Exam For My Back. Will I Get Screwed Because Of Rom
Rate this question
Question
gamorris
I am new to this forum and I thank those who have educated me greatly!. Had my C&P exam last week and am a bit nervous about this process. Had multiple back injuries while in the Coast Guard which are documented (even on my retirement PE). MRI states multiple herniated disc L1-L5 with annular tears and moderate degenerative disc disease L1-S1. Also have radiculopathy with bilat lower extremity weakness. I have researched that most back claims are rated on ROM, which mine was 40%, but I have documented bed rest for 7 weeks in the past year, and have been out of worked for a total of 5 months the past year. For anyone with experience or similar findings, what would be my likely rating? Am I going to get hosed because of the 40% ROM? I kow this question may be redundant, but I appreciate all responses. Thanks for your support!
