  1. Bob it has been several months now since your last update, how are you doing now? I have had cronic lower back issues for 36 years now and I have been rated at 60% for several years. I have been up and down the medical gammet several times and have been prescribed anywhere from bio-fed back to demral injections, I have never had surgery because I always felt that science was not up to speed enough to be successful. I have used VA and private insurance companies and VA does do it on the cheap side and is behind the private sector on the technolegy side. It does not matter which one you go to (VA or Private), some doctor are in it for the money and don't really care about you and some do a fantastic job, I have found the best thing to do is be honest about your pain and about what you expect them to do. I have finally got tired of the pain and always making it worse so I have put in for my 100% unemployable.

  3. Hello, I am new here and it looks like I have a lot of reading to do to catch up. I have a 60% SC on my lower back and I have put in for Unemployable because of it. By reading about everything in the fourm I am hoping not to make the common mistakes lesser informed veterans make. Is the pay the same for a person at 60% unemployable as a person at 100% total permenate disability? I ask this because I am 60% on just my lower back but I know I can claim other things like my leg pain, loss of feeling in my feet and so forth and so on but I don't want to go through the whole gammit to claim all of these other things if the pay is the same. I know on thing for sure is that I can not keep working any longer, I was let go on Dec 1, 09.
