SLEDGE Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I saw my VA PC the other day and talked her into another set of x-rays on my bad knee and worse ankle. She diagnosed severe arthritis, DUH. Then she stated that the VA would do nothing about it. I can take another long drive to see another VA idiot who won't prescribe anything. She advised that I should go to the private sector if I wanted any relief, DUH. She called me a couple of hours ago, Sunday, April 1st, around 6 o'clock. At least she cares. sledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted April 2, 2007 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted April 2, 2007 It really yanks my chain when they tell a Veteran to seek treatment somewhere else. I was once told to use charity dentist rather than VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofycow Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 When I was up in MN I was told to go to Lenscrafter or Pearl Vision for an eye exam even tho I was SC for glaucoma. Then just this last Monday my VA shrink suggested I go to a local church for grie counseling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
