Tbird, I posted sometime ago that I had filed a claim and was waiting for the VA to make up its mind. Well the finally did and I do not agree with what they have done. I was already through with my C&P appointment when i found this site and wish I had found it alot sooner. When the VA info did come back the rated me at 20%. For lower back problems which I had surgery for while in the military. My problem is that i still have constant problems with my back. I would like to file an appeal but, Im not sure if I really deserve more of a rating. I still work and do not miss work, but that is only because at the most I work 3 days in a row. The last day I work I have to take pills to ease the pain to insure i can return in 2 days. Could you please tell me what you think. On the comp paperwork they sent me it stated that i had the Surgery after i was out of the service. That is not true. I also beleive that when I had the C&P examine that the doctor lead me to say what she wanted to hear. I tryed to countine on with my problems but it sure seemed like she did not want to listen to what i had to say. Any advice would be helpful.
