The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board denied the applicant's petition for reconsideration, upholding the WCJ's decision. The WCJ found the applicant not credible due to numerous undisclosed accidents and inconsistencies in his testimony and medical history. The court adopted the WCJ's findings regarding the applicant's injuries, which were limited to admitted areas and specifically excluded claims for psyche, internal/heart, lumbar spine, and diabetes. Reconsideration was denied because the WCJ's report provided sufficient reasons and substantial evidence for the findings, and the applicant's petition failed to present a compelling basis for overturning the original decision.
