Have you googled the medications side affects or read what it could cause in the Med printout they gave you?

Have you discussed the potential side affects with your doctor?

Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was

If a VA med causes a condition at a ratable level- the VA will often comp for the secondary it causes.

Some times a med cannot be changed for one with less side effects,

The GERD due to NSAIDS is a good example.

VA has SCed many vets who got GERD due to VA prescribed NSAIDs.

Unfortunately BVA has been down and they have claims there as example of what I mean.

I contacted the BVA ombudsman to see what is up at the BVA web site.
