  1. Appealing it is your best option - glad to see your going to do it,,you will just be on prifile while your in that process so life will be good. I have went through that whole pocess and it's a pain but use the judge advocate system. they will right the letters for you as they did for me. if your haveing issue with any doctor doing your examination use the umbuds man...caution here...the unbuds man is a very powerful induvidual in your process so use him/her with care and have your ducks in row..I used one and things happen swiftly and with vigor lol you wwill not get concuurent reciept with out 20yrs or having it combat related... every thing the VA rated should be on the MEB even if they say no rating or retainable! forght for that as will may need that in the future. You are your own best advicate in this process and you have to be ready to stand your ground as no one else will fight for you. the MEB process is an advisarial one and be prepared for them to tell you to just sign or that it's all you can get..they will say whatever to get the process over and you out of thier way.

  3. Thank you all for your support and all the help i got on this site...there was a lot of info onhere and I used it. That was invaluable to me TY you all soo soo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. TY and your right...It's peace of mind that I can, through the VA continue to support my family with pride and some dignity
  5. I am also not happy with all that happen to me :( but at least now that I can't work any more I will be compensated enough to take good care of my wife and brand new Baby Boy.

Thanks too all, for all the info you guys have given me, It was super helpful to me as I went through my Claim! Sgt Emmons US Army Ret.
  7. I was notified today that my claim has been determined!!!! I will post the findings as soon as I recieve them....should be in a week or so but Finally after Two years I have been rated...now just a bit more till I know what they decided :) Wish me luck folks lol Sgt Emmons
  8. I what was saying, is be honest...I do have bills pilliing up if he doesn't then don't say it, That applied to me but just giving an example of aresponse is all.
  9. SSDI is based on your income once you have been denied for ssdi you should automatically apply for full SS ... I too was denied ssdi then applied for full and was aproved. a social security agent told me before I started that I would probably be denied SSDI and to go stiaght for full SS.....I did 2 exams and was aproved easily.
  10. more than likely they will want new X-Rays MRI'sand such as they are not less than 3 months old. I had to repeat all my exray and they had me do it right after the examination and I did about 10 of them.
  11. the best response i have heard on the "how you are doing ? is this. I must not be doing to well if I am here, I have bills piling up and I havent slept well since I got this appointment this is exactly what I said and is exactly how I felt
  12. Back pay is based om VA filing date. not sure on your other question except to say it will take longer than you will like lol they are slowwww :(
  13. well it sound as if you have the symptoms of TBI and your getting looked at for it...once they have a proper diagnosis and you get some treatment if there is any. then you should have enough evidence to get it rated by the VA... half of the issue is being treated! they want to see that. make sure that if your using an outside Dr. that the records are giving to your VA PCP and he or she puts that info in your records.
  14. I have a paperless claimas well and since your C&P exams are done you should have no worries. it is at the C&P process where there can be issues one being they ask for your papr claim and since you have no paper it can cause a delay. but you are done and now waiting on your decision or additional info either way sounds like your on your way! :)
