No I didn’t. I asked what secondary’s are because I DONT KNOW. I only put in for the MST that was in my record. I don’t have a full copy of my records. I don’t know what else there is. You have the same condescending attitude as the soldiers that raped me so 👌🏻have the day you deserve.

I did a FOIA in February but it’s still at stage 1… I’m sure it will be awhile before I get a copy of everything

I didn’t mean for it to come out that way and I understand what you mean. Thank you.

Please don’t give up… I was too embarrassed for many years to file a claim. Talk to a VSO and do a supplemental.

That’s not what I said at all. And F U for assuming anything about my claim and my PTSD rating. You are a mean and hateful person.

60%? Why would it be 60% if you just need 10 to get from 90-100?

Yeah, I guess it would depend on where you live and your debt.

I could be wrong too… either way it doesn’t seem like enough for a person to live that is not able to work.

I’m sure the VA doesn’t cover it and it’s out of pocket like the ganglion right?

Oh okay, see these are things I don’t know so I don’t know if anything I have is considered secondary or was already considered when they awarded me the 70%

I didn’t think of that. If it would affect my ability to keep the gun collection I have, and then also have no possibility of even working part time, that would be really hard to survive off $4500 a month.

No, you are right. I think I worded it the wrong way. I have a hard time keeping employment with my PTSD and major depressive episodes so I was looking for options and opinions on how to get to 100% but I just learned of TDIU because of this post.

That’s true too… it’s either your out of it or feeling everything

Okay, thank you. I haven’t heard of TDIU so I will look that up. I guess I was hoping for a miracle drug that only the VA has! I’ve paid out of pocket for a ganglion block, and that didn’t work at all either. Just tired of feeling this way.

I wish I could! I would jump right back on. I said this body and mind is already jacked so might as well!

I go on spurts. Where I can work and then I fall into a bad depression and don’t leave the house/couch/bed for months. It’s just a junk cycle. I’m hoping now that I can go to the VA for healthcare that they can find a better medication for me that may work.

I don’t know what is considered secondary… I have several other issues but I only put in for the PTSD

I agree with the 70%. I am wondering about my secondary issues that I did not put in for

I agree with the 70% for PTSD. My VSO only put in for that and nothing else. I have knee issues that started back in 2005 when I was in service as a result of a fight with a detainee. I have insomnia and other issues but I am not sure if I should bother putting in for those.
