CARROLL, J. The employee appeals from a decision of an administrative judge who denied and dismissed his claim for § 34 benefits. The employee, now pro se, did not file a brief. He did, however, file a letter setting out his reasons for the appeal, which we treat as a brief. The outcome reached by the administrative judge turned largely on credibility determinations, which we have no power to change absent a specious basis, and on the fact that there was no expert medical opinion which met the standard of compensability under G. L. c. 152, § 1(7A). Seeing no legal error, we affirm the judge’s decision.
