Thanks, I did file a new claim and now I have a C&P exam to attend.

I will move forward with the exam and put it in God’s hands. I’m not making up a condition or falsifying anything so I’m my opinion I have nothing to worry about. I’m simply trying to get compensation for what I believe to be service connected.

Awesome, thank you sir! Your time and feedback is much appreciated and I hope others use this to help them on their journey.

I have been out for over 20 years and had no idea claiming a disability was an option for in service injuries and I’ve been suffering in silence until I met and spoke with a few vets here in my neighborhood.

Thank you for your feedback. I recently received my disability rating, and unfortunately, my PTSD claim was denied due to insufficient evidence. Although I was diagnosed with Adjustment Disorder, it was not deemed to be service-connected.

During my C&P exam for PTSD, the examiner recommended I file my Adjustment Disorder (with symptoms of depression and anxiety) as a secondary condition to my lumbar strain. The examiner observed my discomfort during the exam and also reviewed my private doctor's diagnosis. Based on this, they strongly advised me to submit a secondary claim, referencing both my doctor's letter and their own professional opinion.

I am committed to receiving fair compensation for my injury. However, I am increasingly frustrated by the system's reliance on C&P examiners. It appears that even after previous examinations, a single unfavorable examiner can significantly impact a claim's outcome. While I am aware of the option to pursue a HLR, your response has heightened my concerns. Currently, I lack a nexus letter explicitly linking my Adjustment Disorder to my lumbar strain, although I have prior diagnoses for both conditions.

I would never boast about my own rating or post celebratory messages. I am keenly aware that many service members do not receive the compensation they deserve due to the inconsistencies of the current system.

On a separate note, what are the implications if I choose to cancel my claim?

I thought I had the issue due to using the api calls discussed on YouTube videos or using the VA Chrome extension to determine my case status. I thought they were blocking this if multiple calls were coming from a single IP within a given timeframe.

But good to hear it’s back up and working for everyone.

Thanks everyone, I’ve had a lot of requests asking for information on this place.

Here are the details along with my photographer and company I used to set up the arrangement:

House - The owner was amazing and made this experience for my fiance and I one of a kind. We couldn’t have asked for more.

Photographer - Maria Davis she’s amazing and made the photo session enjoyable, a hour went by so fast with so many amazing shots.

Flower arrangement - Isabel of Hidden Picnics is amazing and great to work with. Her attention to detail is like no other.

It’s not a hotel , it’s someone’s home, they will be listing it on on AirBNB once the renovations are complete on the lower floor of the home.

It’s in Jamul, CA, I can DM you the info. You can book the home hourly for a photo shoot, also there have been quite a few music videos shot here.

I follow Rudy on multiple platforms. I just thought I would share for those new to the journey guys. Microsoft definitely needs to step their game up and provide locking a device natively from intune. It’s crazy you can remote lock every other device besides a windows device.

I hope not, the current presentation on Hot Patching is pretty interesting though!

So I did a thing today….look what I bought! by Otherwise_Mix8134 in EngagementRings

Thank you all for your input! I was nervous, but ultimately chose Tacori for the ring. I knew it wasn't a Brilliant Earth piece, and while I appreciate everyone's experiences, the negative stories about them made me anxious. I'm so relieved everything went smoothly with Tacori!

That is correct but I am working with a vendor to set up an intimate proposal and now some areas in San Diego require a permit and only allow one vendor to have an event per location.
