alphahec Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I finally received the decision from my NOD that I filed in April 2009. Yep, thats a increase from 10% to 40% for my back, bringing me up to 50%!!! I have some other stuff filed which are pending decisions, maybe that will bring me up to my next goal...70%!!! Thanks to all of you, believe me without your advice and experience, I wouldn't have made it past the VBA door!!!

Moderator pacmanx1 Posted June 30, 2010 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2010 Congrats. My intentions are to help, my advice maybe wrong, be your own advocate and know what is in your C-File and the 38 CFR that governs your disabilities and conditions. Do your own homework. No one knows the veteran’s symptoms like the veteran. Never Give Up. I do not give my consent for anyone to view my personal VA records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
