Question
ruby
I have a nod from 07 for IU, SI joints, Depression this can be won but it will be a fight. less evidence to support claim at that time however I have the support now (80% rating 3 md say unemployable)
My new claim is for radiculopathy and headaches secondary to sc cervical arthritis according to what I think I should get 55% total R&L for the radiculopathy and 30% for headaches. If they give me those ratings I qualify for 100% secluar.
I have a new NOD for another claim for reactive arthritis, a change in dx codes and eeds.
I can ask the VA to cue itself for IU.
Which way would get me the IU the quickest. I have held off filing the bilateral radiculopathy and headaches for close to a year waiting for this decision they screwed me.
I could file a reopen claim for IU (not a cue),radiculopathy secondary to my sc arthritis and headaches secondary to sc arthrits, it is documented by my doctos my neck is causing the problems.
Then I file a nod on eed for the PTSD and REA and change in dx with stage ratings.
or I can file IU only and the NOD to see if they will answer me within a year. If not then I NOD
I read someone where they do IU quicker, it takes just a couple of months, anyone ever hear of this.
I need help deciding what to file and when---can others give me thier opinion and what they would do and why
Thanks for your answers
