Rate this question

Question

Hello,

I just completed a C&P but am unable to see the C&P notes in ebenefits.Not sure why

i was told by the C&P doctor that I was  service connected for all claims from my med board physical.

Anyone's thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Thank you to the Hadit community!

ED secondary to 200Mg Setraline for Combat PTSD currently 70%

Left knee injury,the md just looked at my knee after removing brace and since I could not bend it she told me to put the brace back on

but no measurements were taken.I showed her the notes from Military xray saying there was arthritis.

Pes Cavus:the doctor looked at my feet and then had me put my shoes back on?

Good afternoon,

Just wanted to share and thank Hadit:I followed advise given and was S/c rated for Bilateral  Pes Cavus at 30%, degenerative arthritis of the spine (claimed as low back condition) 10%, left lower leg radiculopathy 10%,the left knee condition was denied because I was on my Reserve ADT 2weeks even though the C&P said it was service connected.

Thank you to the community its been  a great help

Don
