Pending Decision Approval
(I don't know how long ago that was updated on eBenefits, I think I looked maybe less then a couple months ago).
-------
Last major update was BVA hearing March 2016
in person hearing
=========
I looked on forums to see what that means. I don't want to get my hopes up. I don't want to sound like a drama queen, but the pancreas disease is on the move up into my stomach.
I don't know if it was approved, denied, etc. I have a bunch of stuff on appeal, my VSO asked the BVA judge to combine them, the BVA hearing was actually for an 1151 claim, but had 5 outstanding issues. Some issues actually went to claims that I did not have additional evidence and so I did not appeal them in 1997. So, they had connections to those, but since they were not appealed, they cannot go back that far, I made now claims in 2009. The year before I spent 6 months in a VA hospital and was unable to eat or walk. The failed pancreas surgeries were the basis for my 1151 claim. Attached are other issues that worsen, neurological issues, mental health, skin, and other issues going back to active duty. BTW although my claims were because I got sick from chemicals, I was also hospitalized for Gastritis on active duty 30 years ago, then developed pancreas disease. I was hospitalized several times on active duty. Also suffered a concussion and had severe allergic reactions to chemicals. So, although I am currently rated at 60% for headaches and a bad knee, patella issues. I have inoperable necrotizing pancreatitis, after the failed surgeries. I was unable to claim compensation for the pancreas surgeries for 6 months as an inpatients because at that time they denied my intestinal claims in 1997. For 30 years the doctors sent me to mental health doctor telling me I was mentally ill and a drug seeker. In the hospital every day for 6 months the surgeons interrogated me asking how I got pancreas disease. I told the VA doctors I got sick on active duty from chemicals. Which are clearly in my active duty USAF records. Anyways, I hope Pending Decision Approval is good.! I hope,, I wish!
