Question
IraqVet
I just got off the phone with the 1-800-827-1000 people as I call to check the status on my appeal for PTSD about every two weeks or so.
I have had my case in the system and this is my second appeal.....my case has been out there in the wind since I first filed back in 2004 when I returned from Iraq.
They have been hold up on my case trying to verify my stressor for AGES...
All of the below they have
Well documented VA file from VA shrinks on my PTSD about 14inches thick
I have multiple Dx of PTSD.
I have mutiple stressor/stressor letters.
Letters from Family and Wife about my PTSD
I have signed letters from guys I served with about my stressors.
I have Hospital visits where I have been admitted for suicide...for all that know what I am talking about.
Gaf scale range 40-50
Submitted pictures of my experiences in Iraq....Graphic
Today a lady from the 1-800 with an attitide told me that Since my file was already in appeal BEFORE the new PTSD Rules July 13th effective date that my case would be held to the old rules and that they would continue to wait for verification of my stressor, or make a decision on my case based on the OLD rules. Are you kiddng me I have had this case out there since 2004!
Is this true??? If it is I doubt I can keep my grasp on reality for much longer
