Granted
The Board granted a 20 percent rating for left lower extremity radiculopathy, sciatic nerve, from March 15, 2021, to April 14, 2023.
The deciding factor: The evidence more nearly approximates symptoms productive of moderate paralysis of the sciatic nerve, but not moderately severe paralysis; and thus, the evidence supports the assignment of a 20 percent rating for left lower extremity radiculopathy, sciatic nerve.
