0 Lead Moderator ShrekTheTank Posted December 28, 2019 Lead Moderator Share Posted December 28, 2019 Bronco is right on here! I have had all 4 of these done to me at some point in my claims. I want to just reach over and slap some sense into these raters! I am just not sure why they feel the need to do this other than it is taught to them. That is the worse part of this is we fought in a war or two and then we have to fight a new war of our health when we get home. I know I felt so much better when I got home, I just never realized or accepted for years something else had happened too me. That I was a guinea pig for all their drugs and whatever else we were exposed too. vetquest, GBArmy, broncovet and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 FlyboyLeRoy Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 On 12/27/2019 at 9:35 PM, broncovet said: Interestingly, your doctor checked the box "suicidal ideation" (SI) . Notice that SI is present "only" in the 70 and 100 percent categories. Like youself, I have experience and have documented SI. This would suggest a minumum of 70 percent. However, VA low balled me at 30 percent instead. Thanks, bronco. I do meet all of the criteria from dsm 5 and both my private psychiatrist and c&p psychiatrist agreed with the nexus and dqb. What was the outcome of your claim, in particular the SI part being 30% and not 70%? Care to share please and thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Moderator broncovet Posted December 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted December 30, 2019 The outcome, flyboy, is that I fought the VA from 2002, and finally won 100 percent in 2009. Im still fighting the VA on SMC S, and the effective date. I expect my BVA appeals will be complete in 2020, but I dont know that for sure.

0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted December 30, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted December 30, 2019 (edited) broncovet I THINK WHAT FLYBOY IS ASKING ? If you were low balled For PTSD AT 30% AND YOUR Symptoms Showed you had SI if the examiner checked yes you had SI and the C&P Examiner marked the the yes box was you given 30% for PTSD? was that in 2002? you got 100% for PTSD in 2009?//? AND FIGHTING THE EFFECTIVE DATE FOR? 2002 for the difference in the 30% to the 100% for PTSD? I didn't know you had a PTSD Diagnose and a rating for it especially a 100% rating? ..I Had I thought you were 100% for hearing loss and Depression??? and was TDIU and later got the 100% for Major Depression Disorder? and was fighting the EED on That and the SMC S H.B.????

0 Moderator broncovet Posted December 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted December 30, 2019 Its a little more complicaed than that, but the short answer is, buck, yes. I was lowballed, eventually won 100 percent and am appealing the effective date of the 100 percent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted December 30, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted December 30, 2019 (edited) was the 100% For PTSD alone? or for the hearing loss? and The MDD? the SMC is because they failed to Inferr the SMC H.B. when you were 100% or TDIU? But I sure didn't know you had been rating 100% for PTSD or rated at all for PTSD? If you are rated for the Hearing loss and MMD at 100% and then got a separate and distinct rating for PTSD at 100%...and was never infrered the SMC S YOU BEEN FIGHTING SINCE 2002? OR 2009? FOR THE SMC-S.H.B.? MMD is a mental disorder rating how did you get two mental health ratings? MDD & PTSD? AT 100%? SOMETHING DON'T SEEM RIGHT HERE??
