Question
abnrgr88
I have received 100% IU with an overall rating of 90%. My back rating was just increased from 10% to 20%. I am now scheduled for back surgery next month (not related to this past claim). I have been diagnosed (finally) by an outside surgeon with severe kyphosis and scoliosis. T2-L2 rod with fusion. I plan on applying for a reconsideration with SMC-S. Knowing back rating only goes as high as 60%, what are my chances? Does anyone have advice on which avenue i should take? It would be greatly appreciated.

The law supports SMC S when you are IU, fight for it, you should eventually win, but expect VA to give you a long drawn out fight. Here is why: https://asknod.org/2014/08/25/cavc-howell-v-nichol

Very interesting read here. It''s been a very long time since I have dipped my feet into the VA abyss, I just passed my 20 year mark and I am getting ready to file for Tinnitus as this was left out of
