Dre13 got a reaction from Pete53 in Claim Closed 90%
Update:
Just checked my back account and noticed the retro had been deposited. Only took 4 days from when I was notified of my rating! Very pleased to say the least!

Hi Pete, although I have my difficulties I do work. I have heard of SSD and will keep that in mind should anything change. Thanks.

Dre13 got a reaction from georgiapapa in Claim Closed 90%
Hi everyone,
I have not posted on here before but have been a frequent visitor while in the claims process. I cannot say thank you enough to all of you who take the time to share your experiences and offer guidance as I feel this is the reason I was able to obtain my overall rating of 90%! I am extremely grateful for this rating but feel some of my conditions were rated lower then perhaps they should have been. I am wondering if I should try for increases although I have read there is some risk involved with a potential of reduction for other conditions, or if I should just leave it be and be thankful for my current percentage? Also, I recently joined the AF reserves and am wondering if this is an automatic call for a MED board? Any feedback would be most appreciated. Considering I was always curious of people's percentage breakdowns, I have included mine for those who are curious. Now I am just awaiting the BBE or BWE as some seem to have received.
