Right lower extremity femoral nerve 10% 20% cervical disc disease arthritis....and about 6 other things thats rated for another 100%.(body parts and 50% depression)

To be eligible for SMC "S" or "housebound", you must have at least one disability rated 100% schedular or TDIU on its own plus additional disabilities that add up to at least 60% disabling.

Special monthly compensation benefits by reason of being housebound are payable under 38 U.S.C.A. § 1114(s) if the Veteran has a single disability rated 100 percent disabling, and has either:

(1) additional service-connected disability or disabilities independently ratable at 60 percent or more, or

(2) is "permanently housebound" by reason of service-connected disability or disabilities.
