carlie Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 This makes me wonder if my free VA dental care is really worth it... Vync, I don't think your VA dental care is "free". I believe you have paid for it in advance by having a specific,service connected disability for the rest of your life - that provides you the earned benefit (?) of dental care.

Founder Tbird Posted July 15, 2010 Founder Share Posted July 15, 2010 Yep Berta, I remember you called this on SVR the day after the letter was delivered. The AP article linked to this shows the VA spin is alive and well--- I bet they will try to say the veteran had contracted HIV or Hep C in some way not related to the Dental clinic. Any infected vet should sue them for Millions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Tbird Posted July 15, 2010 Founder Share Posted July 15, 2010 Has anybody got a link to the story about veterans testing positive? My PTSD is kicking in so hard, I can't hardly talk to anyone in my family without flying off the handle. I am having some real rage control issues. I'm having some flashbacks of stuff I thought was behind me, I can't even think about going back to the VA for any medical care, it just sends me over the edge. Sleeping less even with the remeron, xanaxx and ambien. Old nightmares have come back and blah, blah, blah...thank goodness I have an excellent therapist. I'm just venting, I try not to do that much here, but I guess it's just spilling out all over today. Sorry for the rant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
