I was awarded TDIU with a 40% rating for constant fatigue syndrome (CFS), and 80% overall. The TDIU award increased almost everything that had previously been awarded, but stated the 40% CFS award was deferred, even though it was awarded 2-3 years ago. I just received an email from VES stating I “may” be required to attend an appt regarding that rating, and I’ll hear from them soon. I was over 55 when all the ratings were rewarded, but I read that the TDIU award can require reevaluation no matter what. Some of the videos I’ve seen made by retired “raters” say the VA can’t required another evaluation for an issue previously awarded, that award is protected if you’re over 55, and I should call them and say they can’t reevaluate me, and I should say I’m not going. Anyone?
