Hello everyone I'm a longtime lurker first time poster.
I have two two diseases that the VA has combined for a rating of 10%/Crohn's Disease with mesenteric panniculitis.
My question is I think these are separate contentions and should be rated separately am I correct in thinking that?

How should I go about getting this fixed if I am assuming correctly that they should be separate?
