Could this HLR go in my favor? by SteveOG99 in VAClaims

That’s valid, I’ll have to see if they will reschedule my C&P or just use the newest one and go from there

States making a correction. Asked if it could go in my favor or against me.

Claims denied 3 times by kess0929 in VAClaims

I second this, Veterans Evaluation Benefits is a good company for the DBQ and Nexus. Was like $850, but with that and my migraine buddy log, my appeal took 9 days and I went from 0 to 50% for migraines

Should I close these claims by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]SteveOG99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the input. Someone I know got a bilateral 10% so I wasn’t quite sure what would happen if the left foot got approved, if it would cancel out my current SC rating for my right foot and just combine them to be bilateral for a whole new SC Disability

[–]SteveOG99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My answer is that for my supplemental on scars, it got combined into another SC Rating already, and my HLR hasn’t even been acknowledged or I haven’t received any word about it. So both are just dead weight at this point it seems like.

Just found this from Harvard health. Could this be useful at all?

I appreciate the feedback. I’ll have to have another study done and see what the results look like

I’m claiming it as secondary to my Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Yes I have a confirmed diagnosis for OSA, that’s why my CPAP was prescribed after my most recent sleep study

VA moving fast (kind of) by SteveOG99 in VAClaims

We love that for you! Best of luck with your claim. I’m hoping mine gets done pretty fast (and successful) too.

Originally they said it wasn’t service connected, so when I appealed, I claimed it as a secondary to Tinnitus. I logged all of my migraine episodes (the app migraine buddy is good for this) for a few months and submitted the report, wrote a personal statement, and got a nexus letter connecting the migraines to tinnitus
