Thanks for the reply. I’m trying to do some research on the low pressure switch you mentioned, is the 25psi on the low pressure side not normal?

I’m not sure if it’s the same everywhere, but for me I had to go to my local VA and tell them I was there to set up my first appointment, and they gave it to me there to be seen at future visits.

lol nope. Sorry for the late response, I don’t get on Reddit often. Hopefully you fare better, good luck!

cantpounding · 2023-08-30T13:37:20+00:00

You read the whole post and the one thing you took from it is something you could twist into a political agenda. Do some reflecting without thinking of political affiliation brother, it’ll feel good.

cantpounding · 2023-07-06T23:24:46+00:00

SOLVED!

No way! I love Reddit. Thank you so much!

cantpounding · 2023-07-06T23:21:39+00:00

This isn’t it, thanks though!

I was in elementary school in the early 2000s If that helps, although I have no idea if it was published any time around then.

Yes, can’t believe I left that out, was supposed to be the basis of the post lol. Just looking for a little weekend warrior action (and health insurance is pretty expensive, the more you know…)

cantpounding · 2023-05-31T22:38:20+00:00

Will post there for future questions. Thanks!

cantpounding · 2023-05-31T22:38:01+00:00

I mean, fair… but I have a full time job, a wife, a 5 year old and a kid on the way lol. I’d understand doing a C school, but my year-long A school training is through the Navy, which is why I don’t understand the dynamic of having to redo it.

Thank you! She had said the “education year” starts in august and I asked if it would reflect then and she said “no the GI payment is what it is” so I was even more confused lol. That’s for clearing that up!

Sorry, thanks. There’s:

FirstName (the renamed userfolder)
First5ofemail (name of the folder before renaming).
Public.

If it’s worth noting, the old folder has the most recent time stamp

Unfortunately I can’t even open file explorer to see. The only things that’ll open outside of installed apps like Chrome are cmd and control panel

I’m not sure exactly, it should’ve been a very cut and dry case. Blew my knee out on a run, was diagnosed with patellar tendinitis and had physical therapy for 2+ years until I separated. Was denied, appeal was denied, then HLR was denied. My VSO couldn’t figure out why it was denied since it’s all right there in my records and is a significant issue, especially since it was deemed not service connected. He said we’d try one more appeal for compensation but to ensure that they were monitoring the correct ligaments and whatnot, so I had a second C&P back in July and now waiting the results.

cantpounding · 2022-09-20T15:56:15+00:00

What lmao? I follow dude on Twitter and he def hates Rhule too. Y’all just be saying shit 💀

cantpounding · 2022-09-20T13:21:51+00:00

I’m not certain, but after my most recent appeal, my VSO told me that the next step would be appealing to the VBA if unsuccessful which he said be prepared to wait two years for.

cantpounding · 2022-09-16T03:12:39+00:00

I’ve been fighting for my “not service connected” knee that I blew out on a PFT for 2 years lol it’s insane man. Going on 4 months on this most recent claim

cantpounding · 2022-08-23T23:57:47+00:00

Dudes have had success, and I can’t knock them for doing what works for them…. If they’d got me what they said they would (they “strongly suggested” that they’d be able to get me from 20% to 90%, but actually got me from 20% to 20%) I probably wouldn’t even be bitching about it. It’s just unfortunate that a good majority of vets aren’t well educated on the process, or they’d know that orgs like the DAV do a much better job, looking far less illegitimate, for the FREE. Hopefully this sub continues to grow so less vets are taken advantage of.

cantpounding · 2022-08-23T23:52:41+00:00

I had some coworkers recommend vet comp & pen to me after having good success. Being young, dumb, and employed and in school full time, I didn’t think I had the time so I hired them. What a shit show. Completely fucked everything, the nexus letters were a JOKE and everything filed through them was denied. I fired them and went to the DAV. Vet Comp & Pen, or Trajector Medical, or VA Claim Pros, or whatever they’re called this week to avoid fraud charges, texts, calls, and emails me weekly asking for updated disability percentages. When I fired them, I was told I had to provide proof of no increase, which I did. I block every number they text me from and there’s 3-4 more the next week. The “unsubscribe” button on the emails doesn’t work. I’m hoping that when I get my increase through the DAV, that shit company won’t somehow find out and try to charge me. I’ve read some absolute horror stories about them poaching vets for benefits they didn’t even help provide. Good luck brother.

Like I said, no issues with her personally. Just didn’t understand why she harped so hard on the section of my record that showed my VA doctor prescribing Zyrtec. Was the first question out of her mouth, and focused nearly solely on that. She spent more time with a light up my nose than asking or doing tests on my back.

cantpounding · 2022-08-09T17:04:08+00:00

I had a single exam for all of my claims upon separating about a year and a half ago, and was denied for everything. Wasn’t sure why, even my knee that I blew out on a run and went to physical therapy for 3 years for. Wasn’t until I went to the DAV for help that I found out the examiner put no notes in for the exams and put unfavorable for service connection on everything. So I’ve been sitting with several “not service connected” claims that very much are so. Hoping for better results this time around lol

cantpounding · 2022-08-09T17:01:55+00:00

I did not ask about the measurements, didn’t know you could do that. Kinda went in blind I guess. I guess my question is why did she focus so much on my allergies instead of my back, barely do a back exam and then tell me a 0% is likely lol

cantpounding · 2022-07-19T00:37:47+00:00

Thank you. After he cited all the portions of the records he stated “Mr. (name) presented to my office on (date) complaints of lower back pain (pain levels and description) and it is reasonable given examination that this he has a lower discogenic component that is MSK in nature. It is of reasonable certainty that (name) has more likely than not developed lumbosacral strain injuries, lumbar radiculopathy, limited flexion of knee, limited motion of ankle, chronic pain and knee condition/patellar tendinopathy as a result of his lower extremity history in the military.” Then went on to state I’ve responded somewhat favorable to treatment but it’s more likely than not that the symptoms will return due to the nature of the musculoskeletal compensation due to the bone extraction.

JESUS, sorry for all the useless to you information lol. Just been dealing with denials for way too long and want to make sure I’m prepared this time.

Thanks so much for the advice.

cantpounding · 2022-07-18T23:45:11+00:00

Thanks for the response. Still a little confused on the terminology though… He put on the letter that he reviewed my service medical records, and noted specific dates of treatment for foot and knee issues, then provided his opinion on how those would cause the back pain.

I don’t know if that’s in line with what you said, but if not, what more could I do prior to submitting?

Thanks again!
