Life is a risk I know but I am on the fence many tell me don't risk asking for higher you might get lower.. or try other issues and leave your core rating alone... After I was awarded my 70% PTSD IU and PT in 2004 of course I did not find out till 2005 and was at that time still seeing a doctor 2 times a month private pay because the va only allowed 30 min visit and I often would take up 2 hours.. At that time I filed for SSD and was giving a form that says MEDICAL opinion Re. Ability to do work related activities MENTAL ... it has a 27 questions the SS ask the doctor to rate and write why they gave rating.. Out of the 27 questions they can be scored Very Good... Good fair or POOR ... almost all my ratings are in the poor slot with a few in Fair and I have these reports for every year from 2005 to 2013 some are worst others better but NONE even have one good and most have over 70% poor with some 90% poor.. . my question can I use these reports as evidence and if they are marked poor would it not be hard for the VA to reduce my rating.. And this doctor works out patient for non other then the VA so its kind of like one of their doctors.. any seasoned vets think this is solid enough to send as evidence and have very little down side on them requesting a reduction ?
