I recieved my proposed VA rating today via mail for type 1 diabetes, and the VA proposed 20%. Now i know this is fairly common but in my disposition and recommendations my endocrinologist states "must avoid strenuous and occupational and recreational activities in order to prevent hypoglycemic episodes and must restrict diet in order to help control blood glucose levels" this is exactly how it is stated..
And in the VAs explanation it says " a proposed higher evaluation of 40% is NOT warranted unless there is restriction of activties" My question is isnt that exactly what my endo put?? I feel as though i have all the criteria to recieve 40%.. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND?? Any info or opinions would be helpful
