K9MAL Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) In 2001 I had my initial C&P exam. I was approved for 30% Migraine/tension headaches, 30% R Shoulder, 10% Right Knee and 10% Right Ankle. However, I was shot down for tinnitus. I decided to apply for it again since I'm trying to raise a few percentages and get some other things looked at that are connected to my time in service. Just had my hearing test last week and received a copy of the report today… "At least as likely as not (50% probability or greater) caused by or a result of military noise exposure." It doesn't change my 60% rating but it's nice to finally have them have it marked appropriately. Edited to add: My DAV Rep told me NOT to contest the results back then because I shouldn't "rock the boat" and possibly get a decrease on something else.
