95Maxima Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I have 30, 20, 10 on right knee and 10 on left knee. I also have 20,20,20,20,20,10,10,10,10. I come up with 55 on my knees and bilateral 5.5%. Total of 90 plus 5.5 is 95.5 % total. Is this correct? blahsaysme2u 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 HadIt.com Elder GBArmy Posted September 4, 2020 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted September 4, 2020 John There are a lot of calculators available on the internet, but I've never found one that can include the bilateral factor correctly. Without it I get 90.25, which is 90%. If no one comes up with a good response, you could call Peggy and ask them to do it. Problem with that is, I'm not sure it will be any more accurate than the other info they provide. Next option would be IRIS. I assume these are what you anticipate getting for disabilities. If they are firm, go to va.gov and get a print out on your "letters." blahsaysme2u 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
