what did you claim if you dont mind. Were your claims all in your service recordgotta read this thread…just did my initial claim and got 80% off top
i think i could get to 100 but i don’t know how
I’m at 90%. Young Black female doctor SCREWED me last time went in, denied me on six different claims for increase. I’m already service-connected at 0% for them, just 10% each on half of the claims I filed would have put me at 100%. shyt is exhausting and depressing, gotta keep at it though.
The last exam I went to a couple of years ago was also by a young black lady doctor. I googled her before the appointment and thought, cool, I should get some results. But nope. She claimed I didn’t display any irregularities. The only thing I received was upgrade for shin splints from 0% to 10%. Which I guess could be viewed as progress, but everything else was a wash. My primary objective was to get my other musculoskeletal conditions service connected. She claimed shin splints aren’t a symptom of anything else, which is a lie from everything I’ve read on PubMed. Even had my doctor while in service write in my medical records that he thought my shin issues were a result of foot alignment issues. After which he referred me to podiatry and I was prescribed insoles for. This is my issue with the VA. These are supposed healthcare experts rating our conditions but they refuse to connect any dots. Actually, now that I think about it, the lady who did my exam was an NP not a physician. And she didn’t use the tool she was supposed to be using when conducting her exam. When they’re measuring range of motion, they’re supposed to use a goniometer. She used nothing but her eyes. shyt is so frustrating.

Master Condition List
For everyone filing, this is the list that the VA uses to determine you eligibility %. This list is the way to get a rating that you are entitled too. You did the time, this shyt is owed to you. Doesn't matter how long you have been out.

mental health
IBS
scars
and 2 other things that are all up and thru my records but they flat out denied smh makes no sense
mental health wasn’t in my records at all but it’s my highest percentage go figure
for IBS i went to medical twice for other reasons that i guess they decided was close enough to link to IBS
scars i never went to medical for per se but the event that caused them is mentioned in there once

yup basically…all the interview is gonna do is see what your symptoms are so as long as what you say fits the criteria for 30, 50, 70 you gucci. and submit a personal statement and be specific as far as when your depression/PTSD started whether it was after you came back from deployment or whatever..just don’t say you had a fukked up childhood tho lol
my examiner was real sympathetic too she was definitely on the veteran’s side rather than tryna be stingy

All but foot and Tinnitus. I have a BH appointment next month (everything is backed up right now) to further go over depression. That recent Poland deployment kicked my ass, worst shyt ever.
Curious to see my records and find out what was accurately put down over the last 12 years. I’ve been for other miscellaneous stuff, I’ll leave that for the VSO.
I’m still in and went to the hospital on post to request them digitally . Said it would take up to 30 days but I know people that are getting them back within a week.
