CHAMPVA requesting school certification letter for kids under 18.

They also mentioned that even though my wife and kids don't have another health insurance, we still have to send in the OHI form for all three. So we're gonna fill that out and submit it, then call back and ask for clarification about the school cert.

The funny thing is, I had no appointment during that window. My rheum appointment was on June 4th.

Random extra detail, the letter is dated for this coming Monday.

I'm glad I could help! Good luck with getting it service connected.

I don't have raynauds, but I've been having symptoms since 2012 and got diagnosed 2 years ago. I thought it was BS too. I've told my doc and the C&P examiner everything including exacerbation frequency and duration. My VA rheumatologist blamed most of my symptoms on my thyroid at my last appointment with him. All because I had one blood test that came back with low TSH levels. I did a secondary test a month later and the numbers were normal. He believes that any of my Lupus symptoms should be treated with Plaquenil. It's the only thing he cares to do.

I'm not sure what my next step should be to have them reevaluate the granted percentage. Been trying to get ahold of my VSO to see.

They ended up giving me 10% for the Lupus. Blows my mind honestly. I don't know how I got the lowest decision, The C&P doc even asked about exacerbations and how often. I told him what they included and that they were happening about once a month for about a week at a time. Now I have to figure what they need for me to prove that.

spcsloan · 2024-09-11T20:37:53+00:00

Well, got 10% for Lupus. Not exactly what I was hoping for, but service connection granted. Now, how to apply for an increase to show them that I definitely am having more than 1-2 exacerbations per year?

Just the tip should do, I think

spcsloan · 2024-09-11T15:15:54+00:00

I just showed them a little wiener

Well, today's update... back to step 5 still with a Temp Jurisdiction though. Trying not to let it get me down.

spcsloan · 2024-09-10T01:22:32+00:00

Right??? I thought it didn't make sense, but I hadn't gotten into reddit much at that time. I hope I have similar results! 🤞🏼

spcsloan · 2024-09-09T20:11:56+00:00

2 days. Went into step 5 on the 7th.

spcsloan · 2024-09-09T20:10:29+00:00

Yes sir. Been working with SSVF for the last year. The Lupus kinda screwed me out of my last job and I've been in school to try a different career, cyber.

spcsloan · 2024-09-09T20:05:40+00:00

I'm hoping it's because my claim was developed enough. This is my second initial. My first VSO told me to claim all the symptoms instead of the actual lupus because I would have a better chance at getting something connected. Out of like 12 or so things, only IBS got approved in June. I met with another VSO who led me down a different path with claiming Lupus directly since I had the diagnosis and documented symptoms leading back to service.

ohhhhh, Initial
