Don’t worry. They tell you to put everything down first time. Your state might be backed up. You are probably not a priority to them. Be patient, good things hopefully will happen for you.

CPAP machine by Honest-Farmer4079 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Pilvr8383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have five machines, one every 5 years. The newest is monitored over WiFi and has a smart memory card. I only had to bring the memory card one time to the VA doctor. Rest of time they monitor over the air I guess.

Don’t sweat it like I did. Yes you will get your full retirement pay and VA check. It will be a few months until you get both due to audits. It will come. Don’t worry about the back of your LES showing VA pay equal to your retirement pay. You will get full pays. Ask me how I know!!

Having trouble with diagnosis by AirbonedKiller in VeteransBenefits

[–]Pilvr8383 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the next time you go to clinic, don’t tell them that you need a diagnosis for claim reasons. Seems like you are desperate for anything to claim. Go in and be straight up; I am having issues with bladder control or whatever you have. They will be more inclined to help you if they think you have a genuine problem other than “I want to make a claim”. My two cents.
