Knee and Leg separate or combined rating?

Rate this question


HONDOII

Question

I recently noticed that my knee pain secondary claim was merged with my shin splint (bilateral leg pain) claim for my left knee/leg.  I assumed these were supposed to be rated separately but I can't find anything in the eCFR that states this is the case?

Take a look at the attached link for an answer :

If I had listened to the nay sayers, I would never have acheived any ratings after I was awarded TDIU in 1999. Now I have not one but two 100% ratings, a TDIU  and 4 SMC awards !  I say JUST GO For It
