Wish I'd thought of this before
I know I had a QME with a neurologist that spent less than five minutes with me, left the room for 15 minutes and came back and spent another 5 minutes with me. An exam was not even done. Then he wrote that I refused to let him examine me - or check my reflexes. Because someone is in pain and jumps when you go to touch them does not constitute refusal to let them examine you. I even offered for him to try again but HE refused. He also ignored the TOS diagnosis and didn't check pulses, ask me to raise my arms, etc.
So, I wish I'd known about the 30 minute rule back then. This forum is so useful in helping educate us and the newly diagnosed people about the system.
Hope
