Question
Spent warrior
I was surprised to get a letter from the VA that turned out to be a new Rating Dicision regarding my PTSD (which I got rated for the first time last November). I have times where I am suicidal and once in November and once in January I ended up in the locked down mental health ward for days.
From reading the document (two page white letter, accompanied by numersous green pages) it seems that if some other evidense about me is out there the VA takes a look to see if it affects my rating. The decision was that my rating stays at 70%. The green letter kind of tells me why I am rated at what I am, and what it takes for 100%, which they say I am not qualified for.
I was very surprised, and I guess concerned. I sure don't want to loose what I have and now I worry that if I get help for something they might come back and use it against me to knock down my rating. Does this happen?
Thank you,
Spent Warrior
