HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted June 25, 2006 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted June 25, 2006 Take the money and run but keep an eye on our friends at the VA. It is always good to know where and what your enemy or paymaster is doing. Unless something really changes I am pretty much through with the VA but things can change. Pearl, you may be in line for SMC one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearl Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 Thanks guys for all your well wishes. It is truly a good feeling knowing that I don't have to follow up on my claims any longer. Mssoup, I have been following your posts, and I'm really happy for your win. Berta, the retro is because I continued to appeal my decisions from my initial claim back in 2001. I will say to all, don't give up if you feel your claim is legitimate. You will surely succeed if you persevere, and follow all the good advice that this site offers. John, I agree with you even though I won't be filing any more claims, I will keep my eye on all VA news. Pete, Tbird, and Carlie again thanks, I will also continue to follow the posts on this site and will try to help where I can. You guys are all wonderful assets to this site and your help to me and others here has been immeasurable. Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_al_100_nv Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hi everyone I received my decision today on the appeal of carpal tunnel syndrome and hypertensive heart disease. I was granted ten percent on the carpal tunnel and thirty percent on the HHD. I am already 100% IU perm and total so this just gives me some retro back to 2001. Thanks for all the great advice this site offers. I am finally done with the VA, and I'm sure they are glad of that, I know I am. I hope that all your claims work out the way you want and need them to. Pearl PPP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moe Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Pearl and Mssoup1, I know you are glad the fight is over. I too recently won my last appeal so I know the feeling. After 24 years of battle with the VA system I am done. But not with the Vet sites I visit. I too will help if I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
