AD

[jfrei]

This useless diagnosis is apparently a catch all for nothing dx. It's limited to being dx for 6 months after the stressor my sTBi was over ten years ago. How can you say I have an AD with my sTBI. If my residuals are still manifested is that still technically an ongoing stressor for my AD? Does anyone have any experience with this I know I've already been dx for having PTSD and a sTBI, how is that possible to have a AD with those two already service connected? Makes my damn head shake pardon my French...

jfrei,

 your rated at  TDIU P&T  Correct?  (Paid at the 100% rate)

Are you wanting these other ratings to qualify for the SMC's  for more compensation?

or do you just want all your contention S.C.? Rather or not you get the SMC's?

As I understand it  for veterans spouse to recieve DIC he has to been rated P& T for 10 years  no matter what he dies from for her to qualify for DIC.

Now if you died from your S.C. Injurys  she can get DIC but they need to be S.C.

Or  are you wanting the 100% scheduler 100%? so you can work?
