Was this all an increase?  That is the way hubbys read too.  He was already getting 20 for diabetes,  so they deny that one now, and grant the 40.

i was asking for increase and effective date.... im confused about this extra schedule thing..its not on the web site but i understand that its something the judge has power to initiate and grant without vet asking....

what was ur hubby increased to 40% for ?
