So a couple of months ago I posted that VA had sent me a Proposal to Reduce. In the proposal they alleged that the radiculopathies in both my lower extremities had showed improvement and would currently rate as "moderate" from the "moderately severe" that I had been evaluated for previously.
As such, I requested the report from the current C&P exam that they used to "show that improvement" and I got the DBQs from that yesterday. All the while I was thinking that I got a "bad exam", but to my surprise the C&P examiner stated in one DBQ that my radiculopathies were "Severe" and in another he marked my Sciatica as "moderately severe". So, can anyone tell me why I might have received this proposal to reduce and how do I go about correcting this?

Thank you Shrek. It may not have been said, but I got the gist of what he meant. Thank you for clarifying though!

PS. Good catch on the "template" catch, Shrek. "I am in dispute of the proposed reduction as my conditions have gotten worse."
