Moderator pacmanx1 Posted March 12, 2010 Moderator Share Posted March 12, 2010 (edited) I agree with Pete53, now is not the time to claim sleep apnea wait until you get your rating decision. Edited March 12, 2010 by pacmanx1 My intentions are to help, my advice maybe wrong, be your own advocate and know what is in your C-File and the 38 CFR that governs your disabilities and conditions. Do your own homework. No one knows the veteran’s symptoms like the veteran. Never Give Up. I do not give my consent for anyone to view my personal VA records.

masters101 Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Can anyone tell me what level 40 means. Is it my GAF score. Any input would help. Carlie do you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Curator/HadIt.com Elder Vync Posted March 12, 2010 Content Curator/HadIt.com Elder Share Posted March 12, 2010 Hey masters, Just curious, but what are you SC for? Is it for your back injury? Axis V is normally your GAF score. Sometimes Based on Axis V, it appears your doc probably gave you some sort of combo GAF rating. (but don't quote me on that).

Berta Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Have you formally applied for TDIU yet? GRADUATE ! Nov 2nd 2007 American Military University ! When thousands of Americans faced annihilation in the 1800s Chief Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was simply "They(the US Army)have guns, but so do we." Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masters101 Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share Posted March 19, 2010 Have you formally applied for TDIU yet? Yes I applied for TDIU back in October, I followed the advice of my Hadit family. I noticed on all three of my C&P evals it mentioned both an increase and TDIU. All three of my C&P's went very well, I had some good VA doctors and contract doctors. My last C&P was on 17 February. Hopefully I hear something by June or July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
