Question
Grumpbox
Hello again all:
Its been a minute or so since I posted/replied to much here.
I hope that those who helped me in the past are well and doing the best they can. In addition, I was lost where to ask this question. I scoured the ‘search’ engine resulting in zero, so if I’ve irked any of the administrators, please let me know and I will initiate and complete my own DA FORM 4856 (General Counseling Form).
Subject: The VA WHOLE HEALTH PROGRAM
This program was recently suggested to me, yet I don’t know anything about it or it’s results, good or bad. I’ve done research online and from what I gather, it combines a holistic approach, whereby the VA takes into consideration one’s body, mind, spirit, community and other things.
All I was looking for was some alternative forms of help with my injuries and pain levels. More specifically, I was asking about Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injection Therapy. I’m due another surgery on my knee and possibly my second one on my right shoulder, which would give me a total of six surgeries. And these are just the muscular-skeleton injuries I have.
My worries about this program?
i just hope I’m not assigned someone and they talk to me about breathing, diet, sleep, ‘mindfulness.’ I’ve been there and looking for a little more results.
Would really love love it if someone that was in the program chime in, but I’ll take any input at this point.
As always - thank you for any time in reply!!

Grumpbox, I am not familiar with the whole health plan but when I was seeking help with my disability and the VA asked me to spend two weeks in the psych ward. I did not want to but I did anyway. Th

@Grumpbox, I was 50% SC at the time and they were denying me medical care for migraines and a severe heat intolerance. I got treatment for both following the two weeks in psych. Including repayment
