  1. Oh yeah 10% ringing in the ear, 50% ptsd as well
  2. I had 30% TBI but some how back in 2014 they reduced to 0% but gave me secondary headache claim 50%.
  3. Thank you all for your help and concerns of me. I am just scared I be losing money from lower rating and have hard time paying my rents and take care my little daughter. I been told since it’s been over 5 yrs they can’t just reduce my rating with one c&p exam.
  4. I need some help everyone. My ptsd and tbi been rated and service connected about 6 yrs now and I have been ordered to attain RFE routine future exam this coming Friday. I just found out today. I have never been to RFE before. Are they trying to lower my rating? I just had to hire lawyer to get my job back due to work trying to fire me 2x so far for being unfit for duty saying I have been involved way too many fights and broke my hands 2x at work. I have all the legal documents about the fights and been going to VA hospital every other month and take multiple medications as well. Do I have to take those documentation and files with me to c&p exam? is this normal from VA to conduct re-evaluation every 5 years or so?
  5. Hi Bertha,

    I need some help ma’am. My ptsd and tbi been rated and service connected about 6 yrs now and I have been ordered to attain RFE routine future exam this coming Friday.

    is this normal from VA to conduct re-evaluation every 5 years or so?

      Since no one has answered I will try to help.

      Bring all of your documentation with you for your work.  It might trigger an exam for increased compensation.  If you are having problems holding a job due to your disability this is evidence of a serous issue.

      Yes, the VA can call you back at any time for an examination if you are not over 20 years in your rating.

  6. Hi, currently I am 80% right now and I just came back from C&P exams for ED due to PTSD. The doctor told me he is going to write a note to VA about my condition and he told me he is on my side. I had tons of medication evidence and private treatments notes to back it up and I had to go throught some unpleseant exams during this process in order to prove my ED. I am glad it's over now. I am hoping everything goes well now, the question is will VA automatically up my payment or do I have to file SMC claim regarding ED once the claim is over. Thank you
  7. According to brown envelope, it says effective date is 09/09/2014 for my increase claim.
  8. I filed my claim 02/01/2014 and ended at 08/01/2014... they awarded me from 07/01/2014 with FDC program and got 0% tbi.. Filed for increase at 09/01/2014 and ended at yesterday with 50% now.
  9. My first awarded date was 07/01/2014 and they gave me 0% for tbi. Not sure how they going to pay me... have a feeling they might just give me my regular pay with 50% increase now.... brown envelope says nothing about back pay.
  10. Thanks eveyone I guess i wil wait how much in few weeks from now on. .
  11. Dear members, Currently, I have 0% on TBI and I filed to increase my TBI 09/04/2014 and just yesterday my TBI was increased to 50%. It took them 4 months and I am very grateful... Is there back pay for this type of increase? Thank you and be safe everyone.
  12. I also requested va to look into my effective date as well. I have filed my claim 02/14 but they gave me 07/14 instead.
  13. Yes, TBI is very confusing.. va will try to combine headache, migraine, and tbi all together. ..
  14. I just took 6 c&p exams in order to increase my tbi rating. It's hit and miss when it comes to c&p exams... you just have to be wait and see until you get your c&p results. Almost all of us have some type of bad experience with c&p examier.
  15. We need me info, the va will usually give you warning before they reduce your service connection rating We need me info, the va will usually give you warning before they reduce your service connection rating
  16. I took two bullets in iraq and multiple tbi unconscious injuries and they only gave me 70% ptsd. Also, I take more than 7 medication as well I took two bullets in iraq and multiple tbi unconscious injuries and they only gave me 70% ptsd. Also, I take more than 7 medication as well
  17. Hard to tell because it's all up to rating officer.... maybe 30%??
  18. 70% ptsd, got out service bqck in 2008.. so far I lost and gain over 40lbs eating disorder yearly. . Sometimes I would eat alot and sometimes I wont eat at all....
  19. Thanks everyone, right now they have me 0% for my tbi.... I just completed 6 c&p exams for it. I am really hoping for 40% on tbi after taken bullet twice and 4x unconscious while I was in iraq. I honestly think I am going to win this sleep apena battle as well.
  20. Yes, I just uploaded buddy statement letter yesterday through my ebenifts Hoping with his letter and me being issued cpap machine by VA is good enough to get service connected.
  21. I told va ever since I got back from iraq, after tbi injury.. my roommate told me i started snoring and chest pain in the morning.
  22. I can't find anywhere bwhere it says I have been dignosed with sleep apena, but I am sure sleep clinic would not have given me cpap machine if they did not think I have sleep apena. My ptsd doctor says, they put notes in my file, but I cant see it.
