I am rated at 30% for triple cervical fusion and 20% for anular tear (herniated disc lumbar) in which i have an appeal in for low ratings for both. I had used Dr. Bash to look at all my medial papers and this below is what he came up with in which i had made recent new claims on according to his IMO and the VA placed (New) or (Secondary) behind each claim and posted on my eBenefits site. Could you tell me exactly what this means when they place (New or Secondary) behind them???? I thought they were all new claims? I have not had any C&P exams for the New claims yet.
