Hello, my name is Archie Butler and I am a medically retired government employee. I received a 20% rating by the DMA effective 01/14/2025 but the change caused a reversal from the sixth to the 5th edition so the CE stated the doctors needed to change to the 5th edition for lower extremity damage from spine condition.
