  1. I have a issue that I submited for and recieved my payment. Also, submited for dual allowance. I recieved a call on a saturday telling me that I am being removed from "static" or "status". I'm not sure what this means? Also, can't find a RoC about it. Then I recieved a "BILL", telling me that I was overpayed! I tried to find out why, and was told that "NONE" of my braces/creams qualify! Was told that the VBA put out a new list of what qualifies and what doesn't... But, the ankle(bi-lat), knees(bi-lat) and AFO do not qualify. Ankle braces do qualify except, they have not been inspected yearly to still qualify? And, the knee braces; evn though they have metal rods are deemed non-qualifying? Oh, and the wheelchair was given as an "as needed" basis, so it does not qualify either? Does, all of this/that make any sence? Please, your comments...
  2. Hey, to all. I am a newbie here. So I have alot of questions. One at a time though. I am debating, as in the topic; CRSC or CRDP. Let me say that I have never been in combat. I have been in all deployable units, just never needed. I have issues that I can relate to "Simulations of war". But, from what I've read on the forums, I don't believe that the V.A. or DFAS recognize them. How do I find out for sure? I appologize for the lateness... I finally have had enough and have taken what the V.A., my previous rep and my current rep all with a grain of salt. Thank you.
  3. Hello to all. I am new to the board. Just to start off Thank you fo rsuch a wonderful board. "Veterans helping Veterans", what a concept. I know, that I know, I don't know enough to speak the lingo for alot of this. So, here we go. I, like others on here have had 3(three) surgery's to correct DDD/DJD. Anterior fusion (C-3 thru C-6), Posterior Laminectomy/partial Discectomy, also c-spine and then same "Lam/Disc" (L-3 thru L-6). All with in a year. Rough year for self and family. All was done while I was on Active duty. Still tried to "Board" me, before I retired. I know that I have been lacking in trying to get an adequate C&P or a Doctor to write more than a note in my clinical files. Example: I kept complaing that the numbnes/tingling and down right pain was now on my "left" side; majority of motion and motorfunction was primarily right side (dominant). After much argument I went from Texas Vet to DAV and three different Doctors; military and civilian. Ortho spine to Neuro. Each had varying opinions of what to do or not to do. I know, must sound so familiar to all. Enough of the background for now. I had request for a BVA through the DAV in Texas (Waco). I ought to tell you before I go further. I did get to retire(2005) and am now a "civil servant". I finaly recieved notification that I had a board hearing, video tele-conf. At the time I had to deny it due to the fact that I was reassigned to Oklahoma. After multiple atemps to contact the DAV in Waco, with no return calls or e-mails. I gave up and contacted the DAV in Lawton/Muskogee. Was told by them that I would have to contact Waco since they are the one's that started the appeal/claim "run-a-around". Now like most here on the board, I am thinking of a lawyer. I'm no different than most, I just want the to recognize my disability and their mistakes for not listening to me at the beginning when I started pointing out the numbness/tingling on the left side. Oh, because the "QUACKTIONER", raised her voice to me about my condition and I raised mine back, I am now in couseling?????? Long story... Question: Will it hurt my case by signing this letter, "checking" the box, "I may decline this hearing and wait for a future visit by a member of the BVA's Appeals" Question: Where can I find sombody that is fair and honest that will help me along such a forked path. If, I have surgery that they want me to have to fix there mistake I will be unable to return to my current job. I have been told that SSD will take dollar for dollar from me for my disability if I am unable to return to work. Is this true, also? Thank you, all for you service and your time. "I've got your six"!
