Question
tylerb333
I have a 70 percent rating for PTSD due to MST. I have an additional 20 percent for lumbosacral strain. That, of course is rounded up to 80 percent. My PTSD has secondary opiate, alcohol, and marijuana use disorders. I contracted Hep C in 2001 shortly after being separated while self medicating. My question is should I put in my TDIU in first or put my claim in for Hep C secondary condition to PTSD due to my drug use? If I get the secondary the TDIU is a moot point. I guess I am asking what is the best way to proceed?
Any help in this matter is appreciated.
