Question
gs106
My claim closed on eBenefits and the C&P doctor is responsible for denial. In other posts, I explained that the C&P doctor had said that my BILATERAL lower extremity radiculopathy was due to my RIGHT foot fracture. They rated me 10% for the fracture (metatarsal malunion) and 10% for RIGHT foot and leg nerve damage. Also 10% tinnitus. They denied left leg and foot nerve damage secondary to service connected lumbar spine. Even though she screwed up the DBQ, I submitted an MRI report showing bilateral serve impingement, physician notes saying that I have sciatica (primarily LEFT leg and foot), and notes from a physical examination at the pain clinic done before an epidural injection but apparently none of that was looked at. I know I have to wait for the decision letter before I can do anything but is there something I can do without having to wait years for a DRO review? I have an appointment for another epidural injection tomorrow...will the notes from that visit be enough for reconsideration?

You dont have to wait for an inevitable denial with a bad exam. There are ways to refute it. 1. If the doc made error(s), ask him to correct them. See below: 1.579 Amendment of records.
