Question
reTIRED
They received it in Oct 08, and finished in May. This was my third filling in 12 years. Should have been more aggressive a long time ago. Went from 20 to 80%. The only thing I have a beef with, is the 10% they gave for sciatica. I've had fusion, 5 injections,
lots of meds, and a spinal cord stimulator. If the rating goes up one step to moderate, it will take me to 90%. The kicker is they rated the other leg at 10% and it only has a slight amount of numbness & tingling. It's hard to figure out how these guys think.
It looks l was Lucky in the time they processed my claim. Hope others will get-em soon. The rep that sent in my claim never notified me, and its been 3 weeks. I have learned much here and will file my own appeal. Has anyone been granted IU by asking for it
on appeal? I'm rated 70% mental & I did not request IU on my claim.
Thanks
