Urinary Tract Infection --Specific Wording
The rating for 30 percent reads: 30%Recurring UTI w/ symptoms requiring drainage/frequent hospitalization >2x/yr and/or requiring continuous intensive management What does "continuous intensive management" mean? This seems ambiguous to me.

Web Site To Generate Letter To Your Congressman/woman
I was looking online for info about CHAMPVA and the proposal to extend it to children up to age 26. I came across this website, popvox.com. Here's the link I found: https://www.popvox.c...ls/us/112/hr115 It outlines the bill that's before congress and allows you to either support or oppose it, and then sends a letter to your congressman with your comments. You have to give them your name & address & phone, because they need to know which congress person to send it to, and their office requires your phone number. I was really hesitant about that, so I did some research online. They look legit to me, and more so, like maybe some congress people are paying…

No Cp Exam Needed?
Good evening all, Im going to keep this short and brief. I filed multiple claims with the VA a few months ago and have received my CP exam dates for all, except for one. They haven't contact me about a claim for depression I filed at the same time. I called the 1800 number and the operator informed me that they don't always schedule CP exams. I think its a little strange, since I'm claiming depression as secondary to multiple chronic illnesses, that they wouldn't schedule for me to see a doctor. Is this normal? Im currently SC'ed for pes cavus (30% bilateral) which was made worst after three surgeries, 2 scars (10% each), cervical arthritis(10%), right extremiti…

Does A Claim Close After A Decision Is Made?
A little confused here. RO denied my claims on 10/7/2011,I was notified 10/29/2011. I filed my NOD 11/07/2011. As of this date, they have not acknowledged my NOD.Today, they sent me an envelope with info I had sent them and said it was the FOIA info I wanted. Which it wasn't. They made the statement that I couldn't use this info to re-open my claim. I thought claim remained open until I either missed a deadline or claim was determined by the BVA. I thought I read somewhere that once a initial decision was made, a different team would handle my NOD etc... I noticed on letter was the same person who decided my claims.Unfortunately I stirred up the hornets nest when I caught…

Chronic Adjustment Disorder Or Dysthymic Disorder
In the military, I suffered an injury and was diagnosed with chronic adjustment disorder with depressed mood. Once out of the military, I continued my treatment at the VA and a new diagnosis was placed upon me about fourteen months later dysthymic disorder with recurrent MDD. Fast forward seven years, and I am still being treated for DD and MDD, and I have tried to kill myself several times. Does it matter if the rating is for Adjustment disorder or for the DD and MDD? I am at 100 percent, but if I am re-evaluated I don't want them saying that I don't have adjustment disorder anymore, but DD and MDD and because it was diagnosed fourteen months out of service instead…

Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title. I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story.
Again – Make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.
How To Post
Post a clear title like
‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of ‘I have a question."
This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial of your claim?”
Note:
Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. The review requirement will usually be removed by the 6th post. However, we reserve the right to keep anyone on moderator preview.
This process allows us to remove spam and other junk posts before hitting the board. We want to keep the focus on VA Claims, and this helps us do that.
