carlie Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Thanks !! now I need to keep pumping up My PTSD VA visits !! The number of visits is not factored into the schedule of Rating criteria. I wouldn't be trying to "pump" up anything, just relate to what life is really like for yourself on a regular basis. Carlie passed away in November 2015 she is missed.

Shellback- Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 The number of visits is not factored into the schedule of Rating criteria. I wouldn't be trying to "pump" up anything, just relate to what life is really like for yourself on a regular basis. Painful and blurry is how I make it thru most days usually -between the nightmares of being back in the Gulf-the narcotics I ingest daily for pain and the uneasy feeling in crowds or public places and lack of sleep from 2 bad knees and 2 slipped disks-I usually have to pump Myself up with some kind of goal for the day just to be able to go outside and do the little work that I can get and are still able to handle- I was wondering if filling for a secondary condition meaning My right knee that I have been getting treatment at the VA for would be of any worth to Me??-@ 40% if I received a extra 10% for My right knee would that change My current rating 40% using VA math= (10% L knee & 30% PTSD=40%)?? Thanks in advance !! !! nothing that a ride on the old Harley can't fix !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shellback- Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 http://www.hadit.com..._calculator.php I see !! the Va actually rounded up in My favor from 37% to 40%- but would they round up the same way for 43.3% to 50% or since it is below 45 would it just round back to 40% ?? strange way of doing math. !! nothing that a ride on the old Harley can't fix !!
