Former paratrooper, several years with the 82nd Airborne Division. Feet, ankles, knees, right hip, right lower back, arthritis in my spine, I am in so much pain now. I finally got a referral to see an orthopedic surgeon. May have to have hip surgery. Thank you for the information.
My husband broke his wrist while in the service and they did not take an X-ray though there are records of his visit to sick call. They gave him 2 days no push-ups. He stopped “whining” about it but it never healed properly and years later when he finally got a surgeon through private insurance, it’s far too late to do surgery and did not properly heal. VA says he’s lost 30% range of motion. This will break and rebreak for the rest of his life and is now covered in arthritis.
I wish I Just went to the BAS Sick call and Cried about all my Body injuries, at this point I look back and Freaking hated my Leadership and Command. I kick myself for all that..
I was given SSDI before I got my VA money. I probably can’t help because I already get over 170 %. Thank God for people like y’all! Please get help if you are a suffering veteran.please don’t let the VA bully you! I make sure they know I am a Nurse and after the crap they have put me I make sure they know it!! I fought them for 3 years aSupervisor said if I didn’t stop reporting them they could make my life miserable.!! Peace and God be with you!!
Very informative and helpful for my claims. Just like some who commented the sound was hard to hear. I had to use a head phones. But, I'm really glad for this informative video. Thanks to all of you. I wish you're located in Vegas.
I never had asthma til I was at Ft McCellan in 90. I got there in Sept 1990 and left in April 1991. I fell out of a run and they said I had athletic indused asthma. I have had back surgery 4-5 times and a hip replacement ! Now I have what they call a movement disorder where my whole body jerks and I don’t kno when it will happen. It is embarrassing! I have fibromyalgia to. I do get 100 percent VA . But it’s for Hep C!
VA claimed my cartilege grew back and removed my rating for 5257 and 5258. I would really LOVE to know, HOW DID THAT HAPPEN WHEN ITS ON THE MRI THAT IT IS STILL MISSING???
I have been advised by the VA via X-rays that I have mild osteoarthritis in both hips. No evidence of fracture or femoral head osteonecrosis. Should I file a claim? I have 40% for Lumbosacral strain with degenerative arthritis of the spine. Should I file a claim for the osteo??
I also have MST! And received 70 % for that! I cant feel my feet but it feels like I am being stung by a billion bees. No one in my family has had of the stuff! My mom was on oxygen but it was caused by chemotherapy . The health care I get here is not good! I was a Nurse for 35 years so I know when it’s bad care!! They had me on Norco for 10 years due to cannabis in my urine. They abruptly stopped it when the drug was re classified. I was so sick from that! I am on oxygen that I had to fight for them to give it to me! I was told the taxpayers didn’t want to waste money for me to have it! Tried to make them know I I fall a lot they don’t care! I have been in 2 Nursings homes! I am only 63 I can no longer play with my grandchildren .
have Bilateral plantar fasciitis and metatarsalgia, with Bilateral Hallux valgus. I have recently been diagnosed with Mild OA/patellar spurring in my left knee. Can I file a secondary compensation for causation?
Man the c and p quack I had says oh so your having a good day huh... Get on the bench can't have a good day... He spent 20 mins poking and prodding my knee when it was successfully pissed off he did the exam... Said it would only go to 20% extension and 85%retraction then he pulls out a tape measure measures my cane arm and my 2 calves he says I have over 1 inch of atrophy in my bad leg... And my knee gives out on me about twice a week... What does this mean he kinda freaked me out...any ideas? Thanks.
I have tried to get the VA to acknowledge an exposure to a toxic (measured in ppb as opposed to ppm) chemical that caused tooth loss. Does this fall under orthopedic care?
In 2015 i submitted a new claim for knee and low back. Only got connected for knee, back denied for non service connected no c&p exam. Now 2018 im asking for knee increase,back secondary, ptsd initial... i recieved c&p exams for all. Now my current status is preparation for decision. Should i have submitted my initial back disability as secondary? What is the standard turn around time for my current stage in the VA process? Great video
Thank you for reaching out! Appeal times can vary widely, but our blog blow on average appeal times may provide you with useful information. cck-law.com/news/long-va-appeals-process-take/
I just received a C and P exams about a month ago for increase for my knees and VA didn't give me an increase. Even as the examiner clear stated on the medical record I have pain. Also, I go to the VA to have water taken off my knees, and all of that is in my VA medical records. Having water on your knees or any joint is very painful. Also, my primary Doctor wrote in my medical record for me not to walk to far or run at all because it can cause me a lot of pain. VA, doesn't care if you have pain.
William White I haven't got my decision in the mail yet... But online it shows complete. I also did not get what i wanted. But without the paper work, i don't know why i was denied... how did you recieve the notes from the C&P examiner? _thanx

This is by far the worst video iv'e seen these guys put out. It's disappointing that the one topic i needed info on has to be the one with the worst sound quality and the lady is all over the place with her info. Frustrating!

Painful motion would warrant 10%?
The volume level is HORRIBLE!!!!!
I have tried to get the VA to acknowledge an exposure to a toxic (measured in ppb as opposed to ppm) chemical that caused tooth loss. Does this fall under orthopedic care?
What about cause and effect? How does one figure out why the va will not apply this to ratings
