Just wanted to post on here and let you all know where I am at with my claim now. I currently was awarded 100% for hypothyroidism/bradycardia and 50% for depression. I was denied joint pain, which really is ridiculous, since half of my service medical record states chronic joint pain in it. So I have a lawyer helping with all this. My biggest concern is getting the medication that I need for my condition, out of pocket costs range from $2500 to $3000, and I just don't have the money to pay for that. I am currently getting samples from the my local doc office ( I have an amazing none VA doc.) and have put in a request through the company to receive assistance with the cost, so I will be covered for at least a year. I will be happy when all this is done, but understand that it is a long waiting game at this point. Thank you for all the support I have received so far and will receive in the future.
