Attorney Wants Diagnosis for Secondary Complication to Rated Condition; Must it be through VA?
Cat4Christ777 posted a question in IMO Independent Medical Opinion,
Originally, this secondary condition was claimed as 'migraines,' but while it may begin as a migraine with a complication, the VA can--and has, more than once--made it so much worse (pain-wise). If it does not qualify as a migraine, then my attorney and I need to come up with a different diagnosis. It's definitely a neurological issue, possibly 'occipital neuralgia,' as the condition meets the criteria of its definition, here: https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/occipital+neuralgia.-

Tbird posted a blog entry in Tbirds Blog,
10 + 50 = 50 and other VA math mysteries explained.
VA Math It’s Not Your Mother’s Arithmetic
“VA Math” is the way that the VA computes combined impairment ratings for multiple conditions in a Veteran’s compensation benefits claim – and it requires that you unlearn real math.

Question
Done wit this 0
I am a chapter 31 doing school and I have to come up with the housing for my next step in my process. I can not do the heavy construction anymore so I have been looking for something easier on my shoulders. The VA had an announcment for a job opening on my local VA medical center site. I applied for it using my 10 point preference and I think I have a good chance of getting it. Great .... its just a painters position.... But what will happen when the VA figures out I am doing a full time position. Will I lose my chapter 31 payments .? ? anyone know or will I have to post the answer when I find out......?
Thanks.........Macool
