Question
allansc2005
I'm SC at 80%, with 40% on my right leg.
Back in June, I had a C&P exam on my right leg and knee, and was denied increased compensation this August because I didn't meet the range of motion guidelines for increased benefits.
This September, I learned that my right leg, currently SC at 40%, is now shorter than my left leg, and a recent MRI on my lower spine, which is SC at 20%, has a "mild progression of the facet hypertrophy at L2/L3-L/5/S1, since the last MRI.."
Over the past few years, I have had physical therapy on both my leg/knee, as well as my lower back, and have had at least 3 shots of Cortisone in that SC knee, and podiatry has prescribed a shoe insert to make up for the shorter SC right leg.
Everything is medically documented.
So, in view of the above, do I ask for a reconsideration of the C&P decision, or something else?
Thanks.
