I am currently 100% via TDIU and I think.... 94% scheduler (if my VA math is correct?). I ask my VSO to submit a claim for painful scar from a IHD CABG at San Francisco VAMC, for which I was unaware of until a few years ago. My most recent C&P was an increase for hearing from 0% to 10%.... That brought me to 94%, dame, to bad it didn't hit 95% @$#%
Current Service connected: 70% MDD, 60% IHD, 30% Hearing Loss, 10% Tinnitus, 10% DMII Awarded TDIU 100% Permanent
This morning I had the C&P for Scar and he wrote it up as 'painful'. He also said my last C&P was in 2013 and they should have listed this back then. Although this is the only claim for 'painful scar' I have submitted, if he is correct, does this amount to a mistake or cue? I don't think they are going to backdate the effective date... and if they did, I believe the TDIU was from 2013.
Last question: is my VA math correct and the 10% award for painful scar push me to at least 95%, thereby rounding up to 100%? That's what I'm hoping for.

You would think the va would have considered the scars at your prior exam, and they should, but unless you ask for a rating of the scars they are not obligated to consider them. I had knee surger
