Question. What if I received nerve damage to my right foot from ankle surgery. The nerve damage was not there before surgery but happened after my right ankle surgery. I am receiving disability for nerve damage of the right ankle. Can I still claim the 1151 even though I got secondary service connected nerve damage of my right ankle. Thanks.
Yes, you can still claim the 1151 even if you have received secondary service-connected nerve damage in your right ankle. There is no statute of limitations on 1151 claims, so you can claim it several years after the injury took place.
They tried to blame it in my file on the nerve block or made suggestions that the nerve block could have caused the nerve damage in my foot. But then in my va file the anesthesiologist made a update to my va file and pretty much said in detail that it was not caused by the nerve block but the surgery itself

Can you do an 1151 claim if you are 100 P&T?
Yes, you can still file a VA Form 1151 even if you are already rated at 100% P&T (Permanent and Total).
