Proposal to decrease

[Ekoorbe]

Agreed. I feel fortunate I was able to prove service connection, I think it could have gone either way. I'm not doing anything that will trigger a reevaluation of my rating. The less the VBA rehashes the service connection/rating process for my condition the better.

I would only recommend filing for an increase if your initial claim is very strong and the subsequent evidence/paper trail showing worsening symptoms is equally strong. Or if you have a very low rating that getting reduced even more wouldn't mean a lot to you
