Hi Jim,
My current rating for migraines is 30% from May 2002.To grant this connection they used previous claims, medical records both in service and va medical center as well letter from the neurologist. They contend that the letter from the neurologist was "new material evidence". His letter was drafted based on my in service medical records that I provided to him. All of my evidence matches up with the below. In additon, the first C&P physical was immediately following discharge from the military in October 1996. At which time the examine found history of migraines in my service records. That claim was denied, my represenative at the time did not help me devlop my claim, they canceled my power of attorney for reasons unknown to me to this day.
My other issues are depression at 30% and lower back at 20%. All issues were denied. I'm not certain what an IMO is can you clarify?
