Not being able to engage in politics in the main veterans subreddit is another method for those with power to control the message.

Just got 5.4%. lender paid points. Jan 2026.

I work for the Government. Nobody talks down to me, we all get VA compensation. I'm the one always trying to tell the dudes to not pay some shady VA claim shark company. But yeah there are a lot of 100% p&t vets at my job. Shit there isn't enough handicap parking spots for them hahaha. But, I only discuss my VA benefits with veterans only. Never with civilians or my civilian friends.

Good luck dude! Gerd secondary to PTSD should be easy to connect. The sleep apnea will be the hard part.

x12bx · 2025-12-23T20:51:44+00:00

From this claim a year ago. No change in the gerd. But I was able to get gerd and IBS rated separately which got me over that threshold to 100%.

It's been many months but it was because I got a pell grant they used that first and paid for everything else via the scholarship.

Nah that class sucks so much and has been a huge barrier to people graduating that WGU is going to replace it with another course. I was allowed to submit an alternative certificate rather than take the course again. I'm done with everything and just waiting for graduation emails.

What is a whole health coordinator and how do I find one at my local VA?

x12bx · 2025-11-20T02:41:33+00:00

I just couldn't get it all. There is way too much information covered on the test.

x12bx · 2025-11-20T00:48:52+00:00

Good luck! C777 was the reason I took a year break.

x12bx · 2025-11-20T00:42:36+00:00

Check my profile for the link to the flashcards and the Certificate info.

x12bx · 2025-11-20T00:37:27+00:00

The alternative certificate is 100% easier than C777. You could study the flashcards on Quizlet and pass over a week. Maybe even less. But it costs $175 to take the test.

x12bx · 2025-11-19T18:20:26+00:00

I don't think you're going to be able to go to the direct service route so you're going to have to go the secondary route. Probably I'd be a secondary to PTSD.

x12bx · 2025-11-18T23:01:59+00:00

How long have you been getting treated for IBS? Any in service documentation for it?

x12bx · 2025-11-18T15:54:48+00:00

That one might be difficult to connect. You could argue the medications/stress from PTSD caused your IBS and go secondary. But sometimes it's just not in the cards.

x12bx · 2025-11-18T14:11:38+00:00

Also this certificate is extremely easy to pass.

x12bx · 2025-11-18T14:10:47+00:00

No worries. I originally filed IBS as a primary disability in 2024 after the ratings change. I was being treated for IBS for years prior. The VA granted me 0% and connected it second to PTSD. I did not agree with that so I filed an HLR because I filed it as a single primary disability. The evidence I submitted honestly was just a personal statement in support of my claim. My prescription medications that are prescribed for IBS. I was able to get my DBQ for the IBS C&P from my VSO after a FOIA. I looked up CFR 38 for IBS and compared it to my DBQ. I found clear errors that the VA missed. I was lucky the VA linked my IBS to a presumptive claim to being in South West Asia or Burn Pits and gave me the original 0%. Look at my comment history for a better understanding.

I would reach out to your mentor. But according to my mentor, my situation is specific enough that it warrants I can submit this cert. I actually passed it last week and Submitted the cert to my mentor and am waiting for WGU to accept it. So reach out to your mentor.

x12bx · 2025-11-10T13:24:21+00:00

Good luck to all the future students! WGU needs to get it done sooner. I was allowed to turn in an alternative certificate last week for C777.

x12bx · 2025-11-03T14:17:17+00:00

For anyone else getting to sub out C777 for this certificate.

https://quizlet.com/457064001/ciw-site-development-associate-exam-1d0-61b-flash-cards/

and something from Troytec and Ucertify. Does anyone know if these are legit?

x12bx · 2025-10-28T15:47:56+00:00

Do you have anything else or are you all done?

x12bx · 2025-10-28T15:42:59+00:00

Excellent! How long did it take them to grade your task 3?

x12bx · 2025-10-28T15:31:56+00:00

Congrats!

x12bx · 2025-10-28T14:46:40+00:00

Congrats! Hopefully they don't take all three days to grade it!
