Question
Corpsman8404
Good morning everyone! First post.
I have switched my PCP to a VA doctor, and have my first meeting with him on Oct 5th. My assumption (you know how that goes) is that using the VA PCP would benefit me in my claims. My question is, how do I go about telling them that, "look, here is my goal".
I'm not asking to "lead" him, but I'd like to tell him my issues and have some comfort in knowing that he will help with IMO/Nexus letters, et cetera?
I will be mentioning Headaches, my TMJ issues, and my upcoming sleep study on the 27th of Oct.
As well, I meet with my VSO's on the 28th to discuss these issues and to even try to bump up my PTSD to 70%. It will be the first time I "meet" them, since they have done everything in the background. (Virgina Dept of Veterans Services). With them, I'd like to discuss "here is my plan, here are the numbers I'd like to try and reach on each issue, and how can I get there?".
Is this reasonable? This may be common sense to most of you, but I want to do this right, and thus far I have went from 20%-70% within this year with the signature items below. With the right numbers on Sleep, TMJ, and Headaches I am shooting of course, for 100!
Thoughts?
