[Life After 100% Service Connection]

Geodon has been giving me a hard time. Driving is so hard on it. Psychology to Psychiatry has been throughout my Medical history with the VA. Prozac to abilify to geodon. VA mental health is a mission rather than a request. My understanding is the process of therapy is a lifetime mission.

Happy weekend!

[Opinions On Total Disability]

Total disability has rules. IU is evidence you are no longer to work. At seventy percent you may file for 100% IU. Comp and pen examiners determine what your rating is.

[Is This A Fair Denial?]

Don't quit.

[Triage]

Hollis I agree with you,but I wish it was that simple.

[Triage]

Phillip, thank you so much I do have it. That is really good advice. My VA psychiatrist and social workers I feel don't even want me with another health option. Pardon me, my frustration grows so much with VA care.

[Triage]

Hi its been a long time for me. I am rated 100% P&T schizophrenia United States Marine Corps. I want to thank all the Veterans who have helped me through the years and been supportive with dealing with VA and also the handling of my claim to the conclusion of a 100% award. I have since, been graduated from two VA programs. One is outpatient living and the other is work therapy. My concern now is I don't have any trust in hospital care from VA. I bring this up because I want to know if other veterans had experiences like this? Triage didn't answer my call quick enough to cure strep throat that I had just gotten a month ago and triage is emergency????? It took Triage five hours later to call me back and by that time my strep had already gotten so severe I couldn't even swallow it hurt so much. What is their problem? I literally felt like I was being left out to die with no help. Luckily , I got the help I needed unfortunately again it wasn't VA. So this raises eyebrows is VA too incompetent enough to be treating veterans? I ask this because all I see when "googling" VA hospital care is a lot of videos and articles on how bad the care is to the veteran. I have to be honest I am not the same I am actually pretty frustrated over my care and even scared after my experience. If left untreated strep throat creates complications that can be fatal. So I ask what can I do?

[Working With P And T Status]

What a bummer it is for me then thanks for your response . That answered my question.

[Working With P And T Status]

By the way Pete I am 100 p and T not 100 percent if that matters at all.

[Working With P And T Status]

Pete I thank you for your response. I think the only way i can really work is through a Voc rehab agency or compensated work therapy that the VA provides?

[Working With P And T Status]

Hello again veterans. I know this question has been asked before but I am rated 100 percent with p and t status. I just wanted to know if I can work "marginal employment" and not be reduced at all. As a side note I have ptsd a mental condition and not a physical condition. So i want to know if it would be alright to work only "marginal employment" below the poverty line without being reduced.

[Getting Sc For Medication Side Effects]

Your Y hyou

Rosy:

You are wrong I have seen clams service connected with an IMO and symptoms displayed while in service.

Your right you can get it through that way also too actually.

[Getting Sc For Medication Side Effects]

I have paranoid schizophrenia, i am currently on a number of medications, but the ones that are causiung the side effects are the resperidol, and saphris, i also take paxil and xanax, but i am sure these aren't the cause. I currently have arm and leg movements happen that i dont want to, i have ticks, crazy stuff. My fingers will tap themselves without me doing it, ill wake up and my fingers are tapping on my chest, im like WTF. That one kinda freaks me out, other stuff is just like spasms, but for my to tap my fingers without wanting to is just crazy, anyways i dont know exactly what this would be called diagnosed as, maybe tardive dyskinesia. anyways can i get SC'ed for this

Hula matt yes you can I have schizophrenia and am service connected. As you know though you only may be service connected only if there is record of being seen by a doctor or someone while in service. I would check out a va doctor to diagnose you as that and to check out on the c-file too.

[Professional Poker Affect Va And Ssdi Benefits?]

agree to disagree but please remember this is T Birds house play nice thank you

its alright Testvet im not here to flame .Just a simple question .

[Professional Poker Affect Va And Ssdi Benefits?]

if you think that you are going to come on this site and put me down your wrong because your the idiot that came here to this site with your story, and talking about stupid your the one that is risking your benefits. And don't give me that B**S*** story about your time alot of us went through the same s*** and probably worst than you . I hope you get caught and have your benefits revoked, its people like you that make it hard for other veterans to get there benefits. And by the way you idiot playing poker and playing the lotto are to differnt types of gambling, im sorry my dog could have figured that one. Have a nice life

im not your dog and your like a little child . adios dickwad.

[Professional Poker Affect Va And Ssdi Benefits?]

I

I know you put not to sound rude but you really do sound rude. Sorry windy cindy if you disagree but dont put a story out there "that thousands of Vets story battle and struggle......" I literally was one of them then accusing me of not being really sick!!? wtf kind of person. You are no way a doctor and i will put up my doctors up against you anyday of the week. The sad thing about it is they are VA doctors so good luck with that one. Then you say something about tastefulness of my topic all I asked was a question? if i hadn't the heart I wouldn't have asked to my fellow vets on hadit. How stupid are you? so i guess if i win the powerball i should be ashamed for playing it or any other vet on disabilities?Since by playing it im not really sick at all by your logic.

I'm no way advocating for everyone to drop ship and enter into poker gambling, stocks,real estate,what have you all im asking is what is considered earned and unearned income? how is that distasteful?
