Default Ce doctor appointment

I went to my ce doctor appointment arranged by s.s. The visit lasted maybe 5 minutes. He had me lean forward, backward, lean left, lean right, and walk a straight line. My issue is a back problem that has lasted 12 years. Anyway, I got to see a copy of his report. It said I could walk 8 hrs a day, sit 8 hrs a day, stand 8 hrs a day, crawl, crouch, climb,bend, twist normall. I could lift and carry between 21-50 pounds frepquently.

In my past doctors visits to my doctors, the restrictions were, limited lifting 5-10 lbs, limited carrying 5-10 lbs. no crawling, crouching, climbing, bending. Alternate walking, sitting, standing every 15 - 20 minutes. Plus, frequent breaks needed.

My question is does anyone know how much weight the ce doctor for social security has. My pcp's have seen me probably I would guess a total of over 500 hours in 8 years, and this doc has seen my maybe 5 minutes.
Thanks for any help.
