seen my Dr...She ask me if I wantd to see a therapist? to possible get better..I said Idon't know but yeah I'd like to get better, she told me to think about it and in the mean time she wants me to see a social worker someone to talk to about things? to maybe help me cope?
I also went & talked to my social worker today and he said I should file a claim to get SC???
heres what I found out via my records today
I went down and got my records.
Anyone know what theses Numbers/Letters mean?
DSM IV PTSD Criteria B is met
DSM IV PTSD Criteria C is met
DSM IV PTSD Criteria D IS met
This is all new to me I understand what the DSM means but not the criteria? B.C.D? Where's A?
Also what is this?
PHQ 9-17 Moderate Severe Depression?
IS THIS FOR RATING PURPOSES OR THE DEGREE OF THE DISABILITY? OR THE SYMTOMS?
BAI-34
PCLM TOTAL 61 ??? <WHATS THAT?/
If this is enough to file for SC?
I Know I will have to prove this is from the military & I can with my service records , also my records indicated a Dr Diagnosed me with Server Depression back in 1999 from my old Bif Spring Tx VAMC Doc...which I never knew about?
the kicker here is the depression was diagnosed before I filed the claim for TDIU THIS WAS IN 2002 nothing was mention in the TDIU claim about the Depression at the Big Spring VAMC?
I Just never thought about filing a SC claim for this because I am RATED 90%Combined and extra scheduler pushed me up to being paid at the 100% rate TDIU P&T since 2002
BUT if I die from it and its SC Then my spouse can file DIC?
I discussed this with my social worker. HE BASICALLY SAID ITS UP TO ME.
Any suggestions? from anybody??
Much Thanks
