Question
GlobalHawk
Hello everyone,
I new here and I wanted to wait for my first meeting with my psychiatrist before I post. I just got back and I have the records with her notes on it. I am no expert with this so I need some help with this. I'm an OEF/OIF veteran who recently got out the Air Force due to general discharge. On the DD214 is says Misconduct; Minor Infractures. I first when to the VA for poor sleep and nightmares. My AFSC is Satellite Communication but I volunteered to go to Iraq as security forces gaurding Third Country Nationals (TCN)s. As a satellite communication technician we provide the drone pilot communication links to the aircaft to run daily mission and both theatres of war. Both experiences were highly stressful and demanding. Im interested in finding out if I would get any compensation for my symptoms. Im also unemployed and experiencing finacial hardships.
Assessment:
Axis I : PTSD, THC/Alcohol abuse
Axis II : no dx
Axis III : knee injury
Axis IV : Limited socoal support, unemployment, interpersonal
Axis V : 45
The regional office had mailed me a letter stating that they had received my claim, what is the next step?
