Berta, you said on the TDIU form, “Under # 18 they mean SSA benefits as well as any other disability retirements benefits” I have no SS disability, the only monies from them is what I paid into, (my retirement) is this to be put on line 18?
How much weight does the VA give on the meds side affect issue, some of the meds the local hospital has given me has side affects that I DID complain about after taking them. One says, “may cause a cough,” I complained about a cough several times and they tested me for COPD. Of course the tech did the test twice to get an “average”. The average was within in limits! A lot of side affects said, may cause dizziness, when picking up my hearing aids the doctor test me for dizziness. How much weight will this carry? And a couple others.
Also someone posted “By the way if you if you read the VA regs carefully you will see that your major depressive symptoms and unemployable should be rated at 70% minimum.” Where can I find this?
This person went on to say “I would low profile some of the issues not service connected with the depression”
Does any one know where these regs are? And what is meant by low profile?
