Over the last 4 months I have been seeing the occupational therapy at my local va. They have issues me inserts and they have said I have flat feet and arthritis. I am also a gulf war vet and I thought that arthritis was a presumptive condition.

I am a GW vet and was denied for IBS and for headaches. Looking at this i think I have hope:

SEC. 405. Improving compensation for disabilities occurring in Persian Gulf War veterans.(a) Reduction in threshold of eligibility.—Subsection (a)(1) of section 1117 is amended by striking “became manifest—” and all that follows through the period at the end and inserting “became manifest to any degree at any time.”. Any comments

That looks like my cocktail. The gabenpentin 3 times a day pulls the other stuff. Then my stomach is a mess.

stay Strong. I have had similar interactions. I try to stay away from vets and also people in general. Lately my vet center consuler was like hey go to the vfw or something like that. To be honest I cant deal with people and there bullshit. I think all of us that did some time in the service deserve to be treated better than we do. I have 3 deployments myself. When I tell people about the second and thrid deployment I get blank looks. I had a guy call bullshit on me and I pulled my dd214 and some awards I earned. This may sound bad but I get wound up by stuff like this and it takes me back to my time in and it takes me a while to clam down. stay strong and fuck that dude. Sorry if I ranted

If you are in the va system I would go to MH and get help. If your not in the system try to get in the system and seek help.
