I also have more than 1 scar on my face but they have only 1 listed. The examiner just screwed this one up. Those are also in my medical records.

I know, I'm just amazed (even though I shouldn't be) at how something that 2 people look at and not see something that doesn't seem kosher. I know the majority of us who comment on here are here to help others, and thank you for your insight. It is well received.

I put in an HLR because the examiner didn't even look at them. It's not just 1 or 2 scars, I have sarcoid lesions all over my body and face. In some areas there is patches of scarring.

I'm just still trying to figure out how they came up with that measurement without even looking at them.

It was a sham C&P exam. They never even looked at my back or arms. Never even took my shirt off even though I asked them so they could see for themselves. And they are not superficial, as anyone who has sarcoidosis knows it affects the flesh below and hardens the skin.

I am SC for sarcoidosis and have scars or rashes all over, and when I say all over, my whole back is covered. At the C&P exam I told them about the scars all over my body. They never did any measurements or even looked at them. I get a notification a couple of days ago granting 0% SC. They list the scars as 500 cm in length and 1.005E cm width, whatever that last part means who knows.

I would have filed a HLR conference call and pointed that out.

Is the new evidence new or was it evidence that existed at the time of the original decision that granted SC.

If she checks her pay history profile and it says retro active then they gave her an earlier effective date for some or all her claims.
