NO, will not help! I have had my congressman check twice so far on my claim.I still am waiting. It has been 19 months now.

I have been waiting 19 months on my claims. The time limit they have set to finish my claims have come and gone.It will most likely be sometime next year before I hear anything.

My claim has been in gathering evidence for 18 months now. I even had my congressman check on my claim twice now!

Ebenefits has been down all week end. I have been trying for the past 3 days.

I have been waiting for 14 months(428)days on my claim. My claim is still in the Gathering Information Phase even though all my information is in. I hope I am still alive and kicking when and if it is done!

I just had a blood vessle burst around my left. My eye is all black and blue. It looks like I was in a fight with Rocky Balboa. The E.R. doctor said it is a side effect of Plavix.

Welcome.I am in my 11th month of waiting on my claim. My VA doctor knows a person that has been waiting two years with no reply yet.

Ihave been takinging 3000mg of fish oil for over 6 years now after my heart attack. It does wonders for me !

I am 70% rated.All of my disability is service related,caused by Agent Orange in Viet Nam.My wife is disabled too.Our disability checks are our only income. I have other claims pending for PTSD,Depression,Carotid Artery Stenosis. I have had these claims in for 10 months now. They are still in gathering information phase. I have GERD and Barrets Esophagus. Are these conditions rateable ?.I have had Barrets Esophagus since 2007. Should I wait for my other claims to be done before I put a claim in for Barrets ? I do not want a new claim to hold up my other claims ,since I have been waiting 10 months already.

I have a claim here in Ohio that has been in the gathering information phase for 10 months now.

I can still get the awards letter when I get on the site.Try,try again. olddude

I have been 70% now for over a year now.I did not get a IU application when I hit 70%.All my 70% is service related.I put in for IU my self 9 months ago.I sent in a copy of my awards letter from social security showing that social security finds me unable to work.I all so sent the VA a letter from my heart doctor stating I can no longer work.I sent in everything they asked for .After 9 months my claim is still in the gathering information stage.

I have been waiting 9 months(270 days)on my claim here in Ohio. I told them I had no other evidence. My claim is still at a stand still.

It has been 8 months since my claim has been filed. It is still in developement stage,and I have not had a C&P exam yet!!

I I am 70% all service related.At the VA Clinic they told me to keep my outside heart doctor and not have a VA heart doctor.That way if something heart related happens,I can be taken care of localy.My heart doctor sends me for a stress test and and other heart related tests each year. For the past 5 years I have been paying for these tests. out of my pocket Medicare paid 80%,I had to pay the other 20% every year out of my own pocket.My heart problems are all service related. Would not it be better for me to ask for a VA heart doctor. IF I had a VA heart doctor,would not the tests be paid for by the VA and save me a lot of money? Or could I be re-inbursed each year for the tests my outside heart doctor has done. I can not see why I should pay for service related tests.
