Question
Eric_M
OK, so I go in last year have 3 eye surgeries for SC diabetes complications, had the 4th surgery last month. Prognosis = not good for return of vision. The eye they've been working on is my good eye, other one is already bad.
So I send all prognosis notes, several VA doctor letters stating my specific condtion (legaly blind). Get two different 100% temp awards, for about 3 months convelescence. Filed for "reconsideration" in March 09, asking for a increase in for loss of vison / temp 100%.
I get a call today wanting to schedule a C&P Exam! What the hell??? I looked up the exam guide for vision/retina all the info is in my VA medical files.
I really thought I had a good handle on the process, but now I feel just plain stupid, worse, VERY VERY frustrated/angry.
I am trying to stay positive, but I nearing the end of my warm & fuzzy attitude. I've talked several time wtih a SRO at my local VARO, he has been helpful with what is happening with my claim.
I guess I needed to vent, going blind at 40 isn't good.
Hopefully I am still on the right track for my claim.....Eric
