Question
JHawks
I don't want to come across like some greedy pain in the ass here. I got my rating decision and am happy overall. However, there appears to be a mysterious deletion of an already established claim.
On May 24th, 2006 I was granted the following: Effective August 4, 2005 (5 Years Ago)
Left Ankle Scar Status Post Surgery @ 10%
Left Ankle Medial Scar Post Surgery @ 10%
Status Post Trimalleolar Fracture, Left Ankle
with Tarsal Syndrome, Mild Degenerative Changes @ 20%
Overall Rating 40%
Today I got the envelope with an increase in rating to 70% rated as follows:
Chondromalacia Patella, Left Knee @ 20%
Chondromalacia Patella, Right Knee @ 20%
Achilles Tendonitis, Right Ankle @ 10%
Planter fasciitis @ 0%
Status post trimalleolar Fracture, Etc (same as 2005) @ 30%
Combined Rating 70%
HERE IS THE QUESTION.........
I have been SC for extremely painful scars for the last 5 years. Why would the VA discontinue my SC for these scars without any explanation? Could it be just a simple oversight? The scars would have made me be 80%.
I don't want to complain, but if they were SC for the last 5 years what could cause the change. My C&P even talks about the painful scars?
Anyone have any insight or suggestions?
