Question
vietvet
Hello fellow Vets:
I would greatly appreciate any feedback.
70% = 30 ptsd, 20 diabetes, 10,10,10,10 bilateral upper and lower diabetic neuropathy, also bilateral cataracts 0, 10 tinnitus
I was denied UI; this was the statement of the examiner
On my C&P VA Examiner stated: that my diabetic peripheral neuropathy impacts my ability to work; however in her description she wrote that I can do sedentary work and moderate physical labor, but that I would have difficulty doing fine motor motor skills, that require touch sensations- the same skills required of a letter carrier (I was a city carrier for 17 years); also stated bilateral hand weakness on her report.
I've sent off a NOD with help from a veteran service officer, including a IMO from a primary care physician.
