I finally satisfied all of the requested evidence by the VA claims intake center for my CUE, effective date change as the BVA granted my 1151 for my hospital surgery injury in 2008. The VA only made my effective date for 2012. They never told me, why, as I had claims since 1997. Also claims going back to 2008 for my necrotizing pancreatitis in the hospital. But they the VA kept saying I had no claims until 2012. They never worked with me directly, only through denials. Very cryptic and it made no sense and my paid rep said he didn't think I could win so I did it on my own. They kept denying my cue sending my denials adding more reasons why, adding missing documents each time for 8 months each time taking between 6 and 8 weeks to respond with a denial asking for mor evidence. I satisfied every request, and am now waiting for a letter stating what they are doing. They are pure evil at the VA.

BTW, I request a phone call in a higher level review, I never received a phone call. we are always home and also have a answering recorder at home. The claim says it was closed on their website for our VA online accounts. I think their lack of communication is criminal, treats us badly, and abusive. If they would only communicate. I also am so angry by the time I go through years of claim abuse, I cannot answer the surveys they send. As far as I am concerned they are worthless and worded so you cannot truly tell them how angry we are at the b.s. they put us through!

Pancreatitis Induced by Environmental Toxins : Pancreas (lww.com)
this is what the VA denied me, even when I got sick on active duty and the USAF doctors determined the chemicals got me very sick. The VA are crooks and liars!

You could try both these things.
1. File a nod disputing it at the bva.
2. ALSO, file a cue "if" your duty station is on the presumptive list(s). Did you review your cfile (electornic, vbms) to ensure you had all the evidence? If something is missing, such as your treatment in the AF, then file a 38 cfr 3.156 new evidence

so far with my CUE claims to fix the date of my 1151 grant, the grant said for the injury during surgery, from the surgery. The VA pulled date out of their ass, 5 years later than the surgery. I filed the CUE, at my rep said he would not help me with the CUE. They would send me a denial, saying I (they and my records) didn't have any evidence of the injury, The VA sent me that 6 weeks after original filing of the CUE. I immediately sent them the info of the place and date of the surgery. Then They said they didn't have any proof of any claims before 2012 (incident of injury the BVA granted to me was for (2008) 1151 claim. They also had no mention of it being a CUE and were treating as anew claim. Again, I immediately sent them back a copy of my old claims evidence from the VA going about to 1997 update in 2009 with the Necrotizing pancreatitis from the original Intestinal disease. PLus re-enforcing it is a CUE. As they were trying to say it was a regular claim. Even though I spelling out all of the CUE and requirements (which I met) in my CUE filings. Also they demanded I had claims during the Granted 1151 claim. The CUE as far as I know doesn't required you have claims during the time of an 1151 surgery grant. But, in any case, I did have claims before then. I meet every requirement and they keep trying the change the CUE to a claim and lie about dates. Either they lost my files, or lying or both. The latest denial was January 2023. I have since them sent them evince 2 times, and no response back yet. I looked online at my claims and it says they are reviewing my case. I don't trust the B.s. They put for us to read. They have been screwing me since last year on my CUE, finding ways to deny or delay. They are totally inept, incompetent crooks at the VA.

the va is still fighting me over effective dates, the last excuse they used was the last filing I did, was 2012. I sent them my VA letters showing I had open claims from decades it the past. since my paid rep helped me in the past, and left him as a retainer as being on retainer. he also said he would not help me get an earlier effective date, so my filing of a CUE for a new effective date has been a fight going on 6 months. I include a letter in my CUE filing that I am claiming the CUE on my own with no help from anyone else. And my rep is not helping with my CUE. They sent me a letter stating I had no claims before 2012 for the conditions. I sent them the official correspondence from the VA with dates of claims (going back decades). Also had sent a copy of my letter from the VA stating they were the cause of my Necrotizing pancreatitis from 2008. The VA continues to lie and fight me, and I keep giving them copies of the very documents in my files over 3 decades. They are either very incompetent or such aggreges liars.

so far, a shit show, my doctors have ct cans and mri showing tumors and on the bone next to my eye, and the nose is very infecting and swelling and draining, purple has been around my eyes and hose for years, and the tumors explain why it is discolored between my eyes. My doctors from a couple clinics told me they would again talk the ENT clinic. I had a bad experience with a doctor there, who apparently wasn't going to listen, and didn't have all of my files. This same B.S. caused the same issues with my pancreas which left me fighting for my life in a hospital bed in 2008. The feeding tube which was in me for 6 months ran through the same area where there is large infected cyst in the sinus under my right eye, not the same one as the tumor on the bone. This week I have to see if they fix their communication problems. I am furious, and my wife is pissed off too. Anything you read about the VA problems, are much worse than the scumbag media tells it. They are more worried about the paper masks than the health of vets. They cancelled thousands of medical appointments blaming covid. I know I can't get political here.

Those that know me, please excuse any info that has already been talked about in length in the past,, this i smor elike an additon with ongoing and newer issues that are linked to the past...
I was healthy when I was very young and in the USAF. I got sick in the USAF from chemcials, and left and worked in fields without chemicals. MY father died of COPD.
I got pancreatic disease linked to the USAF. I have suffered from Pnumunia inthe past too, and have had breathing problems for decades, but the necrotizing pancreatits affects many organs.
I was in hosptial bed for 6 months and on a feeding tube and took many years to eat and walk again. My lungs have had issues with breathing for decades, but the breathing issues came up bad with the pancreatic disease. Beforre then only pnumonia was my only lung problem experience and that was on active duty.and have had so many problem with my nasal passages, and have had severe discharge of material from my nose, and in the last couple of years I have had very thick stuff. Actually the feeding tube caused me great node and nasal problems and I had growths inthere and also the feeding tubes when they would remove on or they would expels themselves (violently) out of my intestines and nose when they became green color with looked like bacteria..
coming out my nose and was like silicone so thick, a horrific smell like sulfur for aat least a decade... and the white stuff was just like silicon out of the tube you can buy,, and also turned hard and would break out of my skin with blood.
The doctors were of no help, they would jsut brush it off..
my percentage of oxygen has been going down over the yars and lots of blood pressure problems.
I am still suffering with leg swelling, but not the feet.
lately that silcone has turned to a rubber, foam and liquid, both and either just collectsdvery fast or I have viloent sneezes and I get rolls and blocks of it out of my nose.
I have had lots of pain for years up in my chest and I can't tell if it is from the pancreas of lungs themselvs.,,, and not I am expelling large chunks of rubbey frothing chunks and liquid, and am not sure what else I have now.
I have the VA for my health provider and they are not so good at helping me, as they are not very good with people with so many really serious issues.
I have had so many doctors come and go, and I get so frustrated with trying to get help with all these issues,, they just usually take tests and , as with the
pancreatic disease they told me they cannot help me, but just give me meds. I am wondering if anyone else has these issues with these nasal and lung discharges,
Always out of breath. I am afraid to start yapping about it to my wife, she hates to hear me with all my issues and she says she cannot handle the pressure, and I read to
see what is wrong, the doctors just don't help much. I just want to know if soemone else experiences the dicharge out the nose, mouth etc..
oh yeah, forgot about the blood pressure and heart beat all over the place. I am in my mid 60's now. Thanx for any info on experince with this... I am not sure what to make of this rubbery, hardish and soft foamy stuff coming out of my lungs... -
the va lies about the effects, even when I went throah appleas they lied and lied and lied.. here are some facts they lies about regarding health Jet fuel - Wikipedia
-
It is important to note that even though some of the info posted on Wikipedia is correct and informative, unless it refers to a resource that is reputable, like a medical study, journal article published by a board certified doc, etc., the VA will not consider it to be probative. It is usually some one's opinion that isn't substantiated. A C&P examiner will ignore or completely discount it.
-
yes... but there is a long offical history of chemcials (from the developeres an researchers) and I am not using it in any claim... my claims were closed a couple years ago...
I am only making a point about the outright lies the va uses and gaslights claimants...
plus they don't read any documents.... no matter where they come from...
if I were I would note the sources, go to the scientists and researchers documents, but none of that matters, only the IMO's. Which the fights back against.
I am referring to the legal reps who are stating that the va still fights back against the vets who got sick on the flight line from chemicals, noting the radio/podcast I am referring to about the chemicals. And those that are getting screwed who got sick from them.
