AFMedic09 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 My hysterectomy secondary to my SC TVT Bladder sling and Pelvic organ prolapse was approved. I am now: 30% hysterectomy, 30% migraines, 20% TVT Bladder Sling. Deferred items: GERD and Interstitial Cystitis (These were submitted separately after my C&P exam on Aug. 9th). Total rating currently 60% from 40% previously. I noticed also they put in Hysterectomy (Increase) along with the deferred items? I am waiting on the Notification letter. Nothing in the payment area at this time. The letter states effective date is: August 1, 2015, but I filed on April 24th, 2015. I am just thankful for this quick response, and hope that the rest will be positively decided in my favor as well. I have a lot of evidence supporting it, and expect an eventual total rating decision of 70%. Just wanted to update everyone. Good luck and God speed.
