So you get 20% for tinnitus? Were there other mitigating conditions?

no, 10% total...I had a documented 10% hearing loss from the time I came in till I discharged....I am now legally deaf...the military stand is that once you are removed from the noise, the loss stops....in actuality, it continues on....had to jump through hoops just to get the va to determine that..at least I am in the system, and if my income drops below a certain level, I can get medical care for free, and pay for it if my incomes goes up...hell, all I wanted for the va to buy my hearing aids...
