Buck, sorry to hear of your issues bud, but as most on here know my story, I was put thru a Hell of a Ride, when I filed my last FDC in Nov 2014 while I was 100% VA already. My claim sat at Prep for Decision for over 2 months, then the VA came after me with everything they had. Reviewed all of my High %s including PTSD which were not up for Review until Feb 2016. Those Reviews were brutal especially the PTSD. Now in my case, it back fired in the VA's face, but it still was a tough process none the less. Good luck and keep us posted bud, only you can decide what is best for your family.

Sounds like claim is moving, good luck and keep us posted.

Again not a surprise, and the Site is always behind the ball

Berta, congrats on the Win!!!

Typically within the week bud. Good luck and keep us posted

Kill, you do whatever is good for you and your family. Sierra, you are right on the money bud, I was already 100% VA when I submitted my last FDC in Nov 14. Claim was in Prep for Decision for over 2 months, then in Feb 15, VA decides to move claim back to Gathering of Evidence, order a ton of C&Ps, then Review all of my High %s, even though I was not up for Review until Feb 2016. A year earlier, and those Review exams are brutal especially the PTSD review.

Welcome aboard bud, and just go in there and be honest, the medical evidence speaks for itself. Good luck and God Bless

Congrats on the 100% bud, and God Bless

Congrats on the Good News and God Bless!!!

Sorry to say bud, but NODs and Appeals can take years. That is why I personally do not like to go this route. I was denied a lot of issues 2 years ago, and since then Filed and Reopened 4 FDCs and all but a few were granted. I did not want to wait years and years for a few bucks. There are a lot of Starving and Homeless Vets who need the dollars now. Good luck bud, and hopefully we will be reading a success story from you in a few years.

Regardless of what you do bud, it will not make your claim go any faster. That is why I do not personally recommend NODs or Appeals, I was denied on a ton of stuff two years ago, and since all was granted just be reopening the claims and making the VA read the evidence that was there all along. Good luck

It is hard to get higher then 10% for Gerd, that is what I got when they combined it with my Crohns, and that is with Scarring of the Esophagus and tested for Throat Cancer Twice, due to severity of damage to throat and mouth, and now my teeth will have to come out, and I am only 33. Remember that you can always put in for an increase, or NOD if you feel you should have been granted Higher. Good luck

That's very common bud, my last claim completed recently, and it was at Prep for Decision for 2 months, then went back to Gathering of Evidence, then completed within the Month. Ebenefits is always behind the ball.

Congrats on the Great News Bud!!!

Welcome aboard bud, but the only 2 statements that we need to see off of the C&P exams are 1) Occupational and Social Impact and 2) Condition is most likely or least likely related to Military Without those statements or you posting your exams results on here, we will just be guessing. Post the exam reports on here, but make sure to remove your personal info. Good luck and God Bless
-
Sorry bud, but the most important Statement in exam should be the Occupational and Social Impairment comment. Please post the whole exam or atleast that comment, for us to be able to give you an accurate guess.

I agree with Phillip, and I am actually in the same boat bud. I am 33, and all of my teeth look good, but in fact all of the Enamel is been eating off due to my Crohns and Acid Reflux over the years. I am currently referred to a VA Dental Surgeon, just playing the waiting game as usual. My VA dentist asked me a few months ago if I was going to file a claim for SC, and I have not even thought about it, being that I am 100% VA. You should definitely get an IMO and seek SC. Good luck and keep us posted

I agree with Philip, you are looking at atleast 2 years or more. Good luck

I was just granted a few months ago 10% for Torn Rotator cup and impingement as well. Good luck

Welcome aboard but without you posting the Exam Results on here, we would just be guessing bud. Please post results on here, but blank out your personal info. Good luck and God Bless

Most of the time it comes fairly quick, but when it comes to the VA, you really never know bud. Are you able to Download your AB8 letter, or look at your Disabilities Granted SC and %s on Ebenefits?
