Dqm71 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I had a c&p on Sep 3. for back in jury exam. By reading some posts, many filled out a functional questionnaire before the exam however I never received one nor did I fill one out. The doctor was poor. Should I ask my vso?

0 toddt Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 When you refer to a "questionnaire" are you referring to a DBQ? If so, you have to take the bull by the horns and do it yourself (with a qualified medical doctor of course) http://www.benefits.va.gov/compensation/dbq_disabilityexams.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 USMC_VET Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 just because they did not fill out it out there doesnt mean it was not filled out, they can take their notes from the exam and fill it out later, hard to tell. i would go and get a IME from a board certified specialist. was your doc a Nurse practicioner or general practice? or were they a orthopedic type?

0 Dqm71 Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 Yes, I believe it is a dbq. I never seen one. The doctor fills it out? or the patient? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 toddt Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 In order for the VA to accept it as creditable a certified MD should fill it out and sign it. You may fill one out yourself so that you are aware of what the doctor should be looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Navy04 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 To be honest bud, a lot of Vets including myself have been granted SC without a DBQ. They do help a lot, but most VA Docs wont or don't want to fill them out prior to your exam. As long as you had well documented evidence you should be fine. Sorry to hear the exam went bad, as we all know too well how that goes. Good luck and keep us posted. Dqm71 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dqm71 Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 I fell on my back while attempting to touch anti static stem on c141. Since 1990 have had bouts of muscle spasm and Djd. What are my chances of getting a rating? Everything documented and sent in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
