Hi All,
Need some advise from my brothers and sisters. In March this year I received my award letter, 70% PTSD, 10% hearing and 10% tinnitus, part of the text in the award letter recommended I apply for IU due to certain statements included in my PTSD exam results by the examining MD regarding my past employment problems; I had 15 different employers between 2003 and 2008. The VARO ordered a second C&P for both hearing and PTSD. Audio examiner told me severe loss right ear and profound loss left ear, thats a positive. The PTSD C&P is scheduled 12/02/10 and is with a civilian MD not a VA examiner. Why would they order this with a civilian MD? There will be examination of my employability during this exam. My wife tells me I am getting worse not better; I still take all the meds including the "do not kill pills" and see two shrinks every month and have therapy on a regular basis. If anyone has been through this IU process please tell me what to expect and will this C&P be any different then the first one?
I honestly think chasing "charlie" in the jungles and highlands of Vietnam was a lot easier then dealing with the VARO!!!
