Hi Jason,
Thank you for getting back with me. Yes, I do have times where my pain has been really intense where I had to lay down for awhile and I do know on one occasion where I was in intense pain that my doctor gave me SIQ for the day; but nothing lasting more than a day. I will start working on getting some of this documented in my records next week.

If you can, you may have a basis for a (much) higher rating. It would be preferable to have the MEB report state this as well, but that may or may not be in the cards.

When I get to review my Narsum, I will look to see if it states my ROM in degrees. But I know for a fact he didn’t use a Goniometer measuring me, he just told me to bend this way, bend that way, etc, etc…. So I don’t think he can caclulate my ROM in Goniometers off the top of his head without actually using the Goniometer while I was there. If my ROM isn’t documented correctly in my Narsum, is it to late to have it put in correctly? Also, will the MEB Board throw my paper work back if the ROM isn’t documented correctly in genometers?

Couple of different approaches you could take to getting this addressed before MEB is completed. Going back to same provider and asking for a new ROM, going to PT and asking for one, or perhaps requesting an independent medical advisor are all things to consider. There are pluses and minuses to each course of action. After the fact, you can disagree with MEB report and state why.
Will the PEB kick it back? Probably not, but they should. They are more likely to if you disagree, though.
