Is retro based only on total percentage NOW? I had a claim close last week, that bumped me to 90%. (actual percentage is 85.something%) The remanded claim is for radiculopathy in the lleft extremity. Im currently rated 10% in the right leg for this. Based on the notes, etc, im figuring 10%, maybe 20% tops for the left leg.
My appeal was from 4 years ago, when I was only 50% overall. If I'm rated for moderate radiculopathy in the left leg, bilateral, back that far, would there be retro involved?
Is it only based on if it increases my current rating of 90% overall now or do they go back to what I was rated then at the appealed claim started (7/21/2010) and start figuring forward?

(I AM NOT A RATER- I work the claims BEFORE they are rated, annotating medical evidence in your records, VA and Legal documents, and DA/DD forms- basically a paralegal/vso/etc except that I also evaluate your records based on Caluza and try to justify and schedule the exams that you go to based on whether or not your records have enough in them to warrant those)
