hypertension Filed For Tiud But Still Working

[Meloal]

I am service connected for multiple disabilities including; diabetes type 2, lumbar disc disease, peripheral neuropathy in both legs and a hearing loss. I also have been diagnosed for hypertension but not yet rated. The combination of these conditions are making it very difficult for me to maintain my job of 26 years. Everyday I suffer great pain in my back and feet to the point that I just feel like walking away from the job. I recently filed for unemployability but fear the claim will be denied based on me still trying to work. I am afraid to resign or quit at this point because of my financial situation. Do I have to my job in order to support my claim? Do anyone have any thoughts or experience to share on this subject?

Feel like a mushroom in the basement, did you? We all lived down there at one time of another, sir. That's why God invented Hadit.

It seems the argument is that if you have SGE, don't apply for TDIU. I'm self employed and make less than $8,000 a year. Is that considered "work"? One side seems to think ANY work dooms a TDIU claim or at best, amounts to a false claim.
