had my C&P for 'Chondromalacia' (Knee problem) this morning...
not sure what to make of the diagnosis,, it's constant problem I just learned to live with and took a back seat to the real big problems... has anyone else gotten a percentage for it?
yes, it was diagnosed on active duty and has continuned to be painful... and stops me from doing tasks, walking, putting the dishes away, climbing stairs..
it feels like bone on bone when the knee bends and cracks and pops..
My leggs are already swollen a bit form more problems, so you really can't see anything form the outside..
my main fight is with the pancreas disease, but htis is one of the items of my claim, which includes 6 items..
I also get treated for back disease, and get shots, in the spine every few months..
I don't get treated for the legg any more, because of the life threating disease (pancreas) and the back (degenerative disc) took priority, but have seen several doctors over the years for the legg pain...
again, just wondered if anyone else had experience with this?
(my case is very complicated with all my problems.. so I am not sure what to make of this issue, how they treat this particular health problem..as far as a claim goes..)
If it were alone with no other problems, what would they do? since I also have back problems, neuro disease problems, and limb swelling from edema,, and more how does this fit in?
