Question
oldman273
I was disabled from a civillian Job due to PTSD and Migraine Headaches 8 years ago. The PTSD is not Service related but after years of fighting the VA that my SC hypertension was part of the Migraines as they were diagnosed as vascular in nature. My mental Helath Doc at the VA in his opinion was that when the PTSD itself will cause the Blood pressure to increase resulting in a Vascular headache. I am SC for the Migraines and I put in for IU but was denied the first time. I was wondering how it would not be a factor in them granting me IU for the fact It was listed as a factor of me being retired from my civillian job. Any ideas as I know some of you might have heard of something like this. I am rated for 80%, 60% hypertensive heart disease, 30% migraines, 10% Hypertension and 10% for tinunitius. I have 3 issues that were recently appealed to the CVA and those were supposed to be remanded back for an opinion. I am trying to just get a grip on where I stand. I look forward to hearing from any of you that have an idea on this have a good day.
