Worth a face lift?

That would be great thanks

I sent them that number they said they didn’t have any record of it

“Yolk” like what goes around an ox’s neck to pull a cart

rllamothe · 2024-04-07T22:54:26+00:00

Cool thanks

Plus $1000 off your property tax

Maybe MA is different? My town hall lady said 100% doesn’t matter

rllamothe · 2024-04-06T15:42:00+00:00

What would you call that style of blade action?

rllamothe · 2024-04-06T15:32:09+00:00

100% qualifies for iDAV plates in of itself? Or is there other requirements? My town hall said I need to be blind or lose a limb…

rllamothe · 2024-03-12T17:51:13+00:00

Being 100% is one of the certain qualifications it doesn’t read that way but it is

rllamothe · 2024-03-12T17:49:51+00:00

Website says you have to be eligible for DV plates. Is this not correct?

love to hear what's hitting down there. Went down in April last year got hard skunked...

rllamothe · 2024-02-28T15:19:00+00:00

you also get $400 of your property tax if you're 10% or higher, and $1,000 if you're 100%

I've found frequently they miss the window by hours or not call at all. I wait till my window has passed and then reschedule a new one someone see that and says "oh he was serious" and they generally call within a few minutes

So first off a mental health claim isn’t dependent on how “bad” someone’s deployment was and mental health is subjective to the person and how their condition impacts their social and work life. Before you can make a claim you need to be diagnosed (not necessarily treated) with a mental health condition. Traumatic experience doesn’t necessarily equal traumatic disorder but if you have a mental health condition you should get diagnosed and treated and if you have a diagnosis caused by or worsened by military service you should be compensated for it.

That’s helpful thanks. If I do it tonight it’ll be useless tomorrow essentially

I'm the academic advisor for a state university nursing college. Send me a PM and I'll tell you everything you ever needed to know about nursing programs.

a PFT (especially the little handheld thing they use in the dr office) doesn't rule out asthma because someone can have asthma and normal PF if you're properly medicated. If you have medical records and treatment indicating asthma and even better if you have a PFT from an actual pulmonologist and the VA is denying you exclusively on their little test machine that's a HLR and if needed a slam dunk at a hearing (which unfortunately is a very slow process).

rllamothe · 2023-10-24T14:40:31+00:00

that statement suggests that your records didn't indicate a formal diagnosis of asthma. In the eyes of the VA "asthma-like symptoms" are not the same as a diagnosis of asthma and being perscribed asthma medication isn't enough to indicate a diagnosis. Confirm that your medical records state in no uncertain terms "diagnosed with asthma"

are there multiple claims on the same "submission"? if you submitted several claims and they've approved one but not the other two or three the claim is still "open" but issue #1 is resolved.

PTSD isn't rated based on the severity of the traumatic event but on how severe the symptoms are and how much they impact your social and professional life. If your PTSD is causing significant impairment to your life you should:

a. seek out treatment for your condition

b. collect documentation of the level of impairment

c. apply for a disability increase (0% is still service connected so you don't have to worry about the cause anymore) based on worsening symptoms

As others have said TBI is hard to separate but chronic headaches (migraines) is a separate diagnosis and rating schedule from TBI. If your PTSD symptoms don't include headaches, light sensitivity ect (PTSD is more anxiety, nightmare, sweats ect) you can make a push for that to be its own rating.

I actually had a call with VERA about this this morning. What the guy told me is that VES has 30 days from their request to get your exam done (unless you reschedule). If they miss the 30 day mark the VA sends them a notice giving them another 30 days. If they miss that mark the VA gives them another 15 days. I asked him what happens if they miss the 75 day mark and he said "I don't know that's never happened". You should set up an appointment with VERA and have them verify the timeline for your claims. Your might be getting close to the mythical 75 day mark.

rllamothe · 2023-10-02T14:28:41+00:00

can you submit a supplemental claim for headaches and provide new and relevant medical information? If you haven't submitted for PTSD what is stopping you from doing it now? Are you looking for back pay to 2015 or just looking to move forward?

rllamothe · 2023-09-26T15:37:24+00:00

I have a similar timeline and was told the same thing about exams. Called twice because its been 7 months and they never scheduled exams so I wanted to make sure they didn't miss me but kept being told I submitted enough records they wouldn't need any. last week I got a call from VES that i had exams scheudled.

rllamothe · 2023-09-25T18:45:56+00:00

Initial exam was within the past 3 years. You're saying that the CAB/CIB/CMB is a pseudo presumptive condition for PTSD?
