I am trying to get my 20% Disability up!
I have 4 service contacted issues.

1. Geniculate Neuralgia- 10%
This is a joke to me. I have headaches all the time pain in my head. I had surgery and they couldn't fix the issue. Brain surgery that is!

2. 10% for the surgery scare (which I think I should have gotten anyways)

3. patellar tendonitis- Which I didn't have on my claim for what ever reason. I was due to have surgery on my knee back in 94 but found out I was with child so the postpone. It never got better but I didn't have the surgery. Now I have major issues with it and I believe I need surgery now. I am adding this to my claim.

4. Chronic Pelvic Pain- I had a fall in Basic training back in 89 and I have had issues since. I had 2 surgeries for them to put me on a P-2 profile for set ups. I still have issues and they can't tell me what is wrong with me.
I didn't have this on my 1st claim when I got out.


My question is what do I do to get things added to my claim. I have copies of my medical records i am sending in. I need help with letters form friends and people I was in the service with.
I am unsure what they should say in the letters.

I know I should have more then 20% for all of this issues.
Help please!

Thanks Dave I am getting right on it!
