Probably 30%..........if you have arthritis, you need to claim that also.

Do yourself a favor.....buy some gold and silver! The printing presses are in overdrive.

Thanks for the reply.C&P examiner told me I was rated incorrectly to begin with.I was given 10% for Osteomalacia only on original rating.Nothing she read in file noted the other things that are normally looked at for rating purposes.She stated she was gonna fix this and I think I will give her some level of trust as she was very detailed in my exam,reviewed my records brought in by hand,meds brought in, doctors reports & progress notes,and the Mri imaging. New Orleans Va Regional office really blows on benefits side.They do nothing according to the accepted rules and this is my second time at the BVA because they refuse to believe evidence from their own VA doctors & specialists. My medical care is superb from my state so it only the VBA side that needs a serious do over.
