jamesat40 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Just want to thank everyone here for the help. I have not posted anything here but has always been a lurker, checking to see what everyone else has done to get their disability ratings increased. I was recently awarded 60% for asthma which I developed 4 years after leaving the military and wouldn't have been able to get it if I hadn't learned the ropes from others here. Was also awarded 50% for PTSD giving me a combined rating of 80%. This is a great site and I'm happy to see that theres so many people here willing to help others. I work with Soldiers on a daily basis, and when they mention that they are retiring or so, this site is the first thing I give them and then I tell them to do their homework. Again thanks!

HadIt.com Elder cowgirl Posted January 21, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 21, 2010 Congratulations JAMES - YAY!!! thanks for posting, sure sorry about your asthma, sounds like you have it under control for now. PTSD is a tough one, my prayers for you on that and I hope you are getting regular care as well. Good advice 'Do your homework' for soldiers and just when they thought they were outta school! All the best to ya, Cowgirl'up! Just want to thank everyone here for the help.

HadIt.com Elder jbasser Posted January 21, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 21, 2010 Good deal James. Keep that Asthma in check. You already qualify for IU percentage wise if your SC conditions prevent you from working in the future. J A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect. A Disabled Veteran is a person who served this country and bears the scars of that service regardless of when or where they served. Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
