Need help to see what else I can do.....Here is what the c&p examiner wrote::::::::::::This veteran meets criteria for major depressive disorder. It is associated with marked interpersonal dysfunction. He does not socialize with anyone, including family members and evens includes his grandchildren. He screams at his wife frequently. This type of interpersonal problem would make it very difficult for him to function in most jobs, and it would impact his ability to perform sedentary activities of employment. Having said that the veteran himself will note that he is not working at this time primarily because of physical disabilities. He is in extreme pain from DJD of lumbar spine, and this would impair his ability to perform physical work..He is not able to stand for very long or sit for very long and this may disrupt his ability to perform sedentary activities actives of employment.
VA's denial report..............Your claim for IU was denied because the evidence does not show you are unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation as a result of service connected disabilities. Note....Although your mental health examiner indicated you may have difficulty in the work place due to some of your mental health symptoms, you stated you are not working at the present time because of physical disabilities, which WOULD NOT preclude SEDENTARY types of employment... Service connected 40% for IVDS of lumbar back, major depressive disorder due to back pain is 50% and 10% for bladder dysfunction. I have already filed my NOD.
