The brown envelope came yesterday and I was very surprised and a tad bit disappointed at the outcome.
First, they rated my PTSD at 70%, the highest possible since I am gainfully employed. However, they denied my Meneire's disease saying that my last diagnoses was in 1997 from a civilian doctor and there is nothing in my SMR to indicate Meniere's, only hearing loss. So, I have one year to see an ENT and get him to connect my military service with Meniere's or that was the onset of the disease was from military service.
Very surprised at the high PTSD rating especially since I am employed. While I struggle daily with my demons, I am still pleasantly surprised.
PTSD = 70%
Right knee = 50%
Hearing loss = 10%
Tinitus = 10%
Total = 90%
Thank you sooooo much to everyone who had the patience to answer my questions!!! I'm sure I will have more!! :)
