MGUS Question

[calicokid]

Is there a rating for MGUS, or smoldering Myeloma?  Is technically is not cancer but precancer.  It causes lots of health problems and was wondering if I could get a rating for this.

Do you have all the Caluza elements documented?    Remember, even if you have a diagnosis under analogous ratings, below, you still need symptoms to be compensated.:

Thank-you for your reply.  I have many symptoms, neuropathy, bad kindeys, bad bones, tremors, blood disorders,

I could only find one case at the BVA with MGUS that in turn became stage one Multiple myeloma.

"ORDER

An initial 100 percent disability rating, but no more, for 
multiple myeloma is granted, beginning February 13, 2009, 
subject to the laws and regulations governing the payment of 
monetary awards.

Entitlement to an initial compensable disability rating for 
smoldering myeloma, before February 13, 2009, is denied."

What is your 40% SC for?
