  1. roger 63sierra. I am panicking like a little pansy, especially given I have a wife and daughter, but without my VA benefit I don't see a way of making things work. The second Doctor was actually telling me about cuts to medicare and impeding cuts to the VA system since its unsustainable (I am SSDI as well). I might have overreacted to the whole situation, however it still feels like they think I am "ok" simply because I went to school from 2009-2010 at the University of Miami and graduated with a 3.6 GPA I majored in history, but I had no friends and spent my entire time reading journals (which is what I do now, but I have not been able to write effectively in since early in 2010). I actively avoid people, in fact the VA in wpb I have been avoiding since I moved to jupiter, fl in 2011.. I am also angry/concerned because my wife did not go in with me, even though she is my caregiver and my right hand who does EVERYTHING for me.. today was just one big xxxx up on my part. I know better, as I have lurked these forums for years.. I did everything wrong and now I will probably lose it all. thank you guys for your supportive comments btw, I already feel better.. I still feel like i am xxxxxx, but at least there is a silver lining: My wife was told to submit a dbq or something asking for TBI instead of the labrynthitis since she had gone in after I stormed out of the internist office. I don't know what that is or how it will affect my claim, maybe someone here knows about that?
  2. Just went to two C/P exams today that I believed were related to my recent application for unemployability. I have had a combined rating of 90% since 2009, and have been seeing my primary doctor and psychiatrist monthly since being released from active duty. My problem started with the first exam, as the examiner pointed out I was doing better because I had not been baker acted or had issues with the police since 2008. This to me seemed out of touch, since being confined at my worst is not representative of my actual "worst" days living. Overall the exam went as I expected, the doctor did note that my anxiety was through the roof.. but I cant help but feel like my 70% PTSD rating is now going to get bumped down into 30% simply because I have not gone out and "xxxxxx someone up". Next exam was done by an internist (who kept specifying she was an internist, despite she was doing a "re-evaluation" of my service connection for "Labrynthitis". She informed me I was rated incorrectly since it is treatable (not so much according to what I have read but I digress). After looking for the original rating decision, my examiner quickly came to the conclusion that the connection was erroneous and that I needed to specify TBI as the injury to the VA (something I told the VA back in '08 after the original decision, but again I digress). I could not take anymore and stormed out of the examiners room in tears. She then went on to speak to my wife while I wandered the VA looking for some way not to just start breaking things. I did return to the office and the examiner was concerned for me and informed me I would be ok, but I know the truth.. the moment her info reaches the VA i am screwed and I have no way to stop it. I am seething with anger, as I believe my application for unemployable has allowed the VA to go in now and most likely slash all my ratings.. and for what? The system is flawed, and the only way out is to check out for good imo If anyone has ever been in a similar situation please let me know how it went, as maybe I am overreacting.. i really pray to God that I am Swift and bold
  3. Having the same trouble with the sleep apnea SC, I don't get what their problem is I was given sleep meds along with anti-anxiety medication while in service.. so that should be a clear indicator that something was wrong. I am currently on a CPAP and still being prescribed sleep medication after having undergone a sleep study at the VA... but my appeal stays pending just like my tinitus and hearing loss.. sorry for the fact I was part of a FA unit and sitting by the gun line as 155 rounds get hurled causes hearing loss.. bleh..
