I have 2 issues on appeal since 2008 and an NOD/DRO review on my claim for headaches from last year, so what do I get in the mail yesterday? A letter from the VA stating that they made a CUE when they granted me Cervical Radiculopathy last year. It looks like they are saying it is basically the same thing as my Carpal Tunnel Syndrome! It says that it considers the Cervical Radiculopathy as pyramiding on my Carpal Tunnel. I think they are saying my symptoms are the same. This is redicilous! I have pain and numbness in my shoulders that radiate down my arms. I have neck pain and headaches from it. I don't think that would be caused by Carpal Tunnel.
I know I need to request a hearing, but can I send an NOD in at the same time disagreeing with their findings?? Some rating specialist probably got an end of year bonus for this by trying to cheat me out of 10%. It says my rating will decrease from 90% to 80%. I feel like Joe Fraizer after going 15 rounds with Muhammad Ali! They are beating me down. I want to keep working, because I know if I stop going to work and sit around all day, my depression is going to get worse and worse. But, I am thinking about filing for TDIU. Any thoughts are appreciated.
