Question
gfunk
ive read through a lot of the posts and got some good info, but all cases are diff so i thought id try my luck with my own. im currently rated at 50 for ptsd 10 for limited thigh flexion, 10 lumbar spine strain, and 10 for knee cond for a total of 60. i had more cases pending for tbi and tinnitus but i failed to show for the c & p exams. anyway, my original shrink left the VA so they re assigned me a new one , he decided to switch up meds, yadda yadda, i saw him briefly but just wasnt working so i tried a new doc who also just threw pills at me. i know they may work but the side effects were too much. havent been back in a while
anyway, long story short, since my initial c&p exam for ptsd, ive had to quit school, leave my apartment, and cant work anywhere. i havent been seeing a psychologist at the va for a few months, maybe back in march... forget to take my pills everyday, forge to pay bills, got arrested for a bar fight... basically nothing good is on the road im on. i plan on doing a walk in tomorrow at the VA to see a doc cause in order for me to switch again i have to ask the one i have now and i dont want to.
should i try reapplying for ptsd now or must i go back to a doc and get the paper trail i need for evidence?? i plan on going to a doc anyway, but i need to get the ball rolling and waiting a few months for the mountain to build up isnt doable. any help would be greatly appreciated.
