i dont agree with rating all mental conditions the same. if someone was sexually assaulted and has ptsd from a combat situation. they should be able to claim both. How is that not just basic common sense?

Great video sir; appreciate your expertise. If a veteran submitted a va disability claim for service connection to shoulder disability for a documented injury (evidence of this accident in the military) along with a current diagnosis, all medical evidence of surgery, various treatments over the years and a nexus letter from a private md do stating that the shoulder disability is more likely than not and in fact highly likely that the current shoulder disability was caused by the injury in the military but the c&p examiner wrote that it was less likely than not due to lack of chronicity as there was a gap in treatment over the years(injury was sustained in 1981) despite all the medical evidence of treatments and surgeries but there was some time there was no treatment but the symptoms have been there since the injury in the military. The claim was denied despite all the veteran submitted; the veteran is considering hiring an attorney to do a high level review to argue that despite there being a period of time since 1981 that there was no treatment there has always been symptoms. Does the veteran have a good chance of having the denial decision reversed if the attorney (a VA accredited attorney) does a higher level review on behalf of the veteran and should the veteran be on the call with the attorney when speaking to the DRO? Also, will favorable findings in the decision letter stating there was an in service event and there is a documented disability help? Thanks

what's the website address again?

How do I get a VA code sheet?

I have lymphoma and lung cancer I'm 74 small cell lung 2 year survival rate is less than 20% Lymphoma is forever God help me.

So, 28% increase of Social Security benefits would be great, but Republicans would howl as, well the budget or something

Casey Walker with the VA Disability Group help secure my VA Benefits after 30 years of trying to get them . I doors slammed in my FACE dozens of times by the VA as I struggled with all my Panic Attacks and other nightmares, rage, Anxiety that went full THROTTLE! I just could not live like this almost wanting to end it all. he won by VA Disability and I really did not think I would win anything? "Thank You" Casey Walker and Team VA Disability Group! We will see where this Economy takes ALL of us because the VA is Broke. They may reduce Benefits or go after Veterans and charge them with crimes to take them back by kicking them off using the legal system. However, this TEAM does win, but keeping them may be out of their control?

I am sorry so in conclusion once is assigned static can the VA still reduce it? Or is it not common for this to happen. Thanks

How about accumulation of low level blasts like firing multiple heavy mortars like 4.2in and 120mm munitions? Also anti tank munitions like AT4 and M47 Dragon anti tank? The concussive forces from those can cause TBI and long term residuals.This is my issue and I just had a C&P exam for it recently. Waiting for a rating now.

Yeah don't take care of them over Vietnam guys that lived in the jungle for a year make sure you get a young guy that suffers from PTSD because he had to work in the supply room

Does the premium payment stop once you have paid the benefit amount? For example, if I have paid the annual premium at my current age, 56 years old, $1988.80 X 20 years = $39,776. This doesn't even account for the cash gains.

Thank you.

Va is great DRO HLR DROC what a great country

Thanks for sharing

VA life insurance cost to much 🤬

Thank you! Very helpful. I wish I would have watched this before I put in my Secondary claim.

Hello, so just to confirm of what I understood at the beggining of the video. Im in active duty still about to start the medboard process I am already diagnosed with PTSD due to some stuff that happened while deployed. My question is does losing close relatives while being on active duty would be a service connected event that could help the outcome of the rating if mentioned? I unfortunely lost my father, mother and sibling a couple of years ago while I was deployed I dont really like talking about it but it would benefit me if i was to bring it up or should i just focus in the deployment events? Thanks in advance for your response and great information on this channel.

What about radon exposure and its association with lung cancer?

I’ve got a denial 3 times!! My husband is deceased but the VA continues to send appeal notices. I need an attorney.

What does it mean when it says one-third of the time in section 3B? Over what period of time, a day, week, month, year?

I thought this and PTSD from the Vietnam War were all the same. I also have all the systems that you show when this video started, severely. It got so bad last year that I had an Heart Attack, While at local Hospital they ran a CT scan and I also had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm so large it could burst at any time. Sent by ambulance to the Specialists in Grand Rapids. Dr Kimball , who was going to do the operation, told me how big it was. I stated that I had C&P in 2011 for A.O. and they said there was nothing wrong with it. Dr. Kimball stated: BULLSHIT, It would take , AT THE LEAST, 30 years to get this large. VA, just did not want pay you for it.. The funny thing is , in 1984, my youngest son, who was born with a Birth Defect. had an operation on it and Dr. had tissues tested and they came back + for chemicals in A.O. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this prestition.

Great video, very helpful!

Super good talk,very well done.

I am a veteran that has standing claim the VA and I need help. Could you help me? What are your conditions.

Very very helpful, thank you

Veterans get an even break at the Salt Lake VA Hospital. They actually know the regs.

Thank you for simplifying this subject for us. Thank you for caring about our veterans.

Just more hype and bs

I got 50 for headaches after watching this video. At the end of the exam I asked and verified what boxes were checked.

I had pain problems in the army 1968 in Korea and was instructed to take ex-lax or peptic-bismol by the nurse never was able to see a doctor because TDY from Seoul. After severe pain my bowel finally moved. This happened constantly during my active duty in the army. Now I'm in my seventeenth and because I been mis diagnose by my doctors I have IBS. do I have a good VA Claim. Thank you for your information.

I had my c&p exam today for PTSD. The doctor said I don't want you to relive anything. Just tell me how you are feeling. I said sad, angry, and irritable. He began to talk about all the books he wrote pertaining to mental health and after about 15 minutes of hearing him talk, he said ok we are done here. I agree with the file and i believe you have PTSD. I'm going to put in the remarks that "you need intensive inpatient mental helath treatment" has this happened to anyone else? Not sure if this is a good thing or not

Sounds like an awesome benefit

My c&p examiner kept telling me that I had anxiety and not ptsd, after a private doctor said it was ptsd. this examiner would say things like "if you can't remember certain conversations after the incident, then it's not ptsd. Because people with ptsd can remember those incidents". I just told her what I experienced and remembered, I'm not gonna lie and give her a reason to disregard me.

I've reviewed over 50 youtube videos on this subject, and this video tops them all!!!! Thank you. I was diagnosed and treated for PTSD while on active duty; however, the VA C&P Examiner diagnosed me with Major Depression Disorder (MDD) and General Anxiety Disorder (GAD); therefore, I was VA rated at 30% for MDD and GAD. Afterward (for the next 15 years), my VA psychiatrists and psychologists diagnosed and treated me for PTSD roughly 95% of the time and roughly 5% for MDD and GAD. I am now submitting an increase claim for MDD and GAD. (Note: The VA's 38 CFR and M-21 lump all mental health diagnoses and conditions under mental health, so I'm submitting an increase claim for MDD and GAD). Question: Do I need to include the VA Form 21-0781 considering that I'm submitting a claim for MDD and GAD, even though the majority of the after-service treatment was for PTSD. Maybe I'm overthing this, and my anxiety is kicking in.😄

Rating on PROSTATE

Do I fill out the DBQ myself or the examiner fills it out?

*#AllOfAbove

No one in my family has kidney disease, but I have it. Served at Camp Colbern 75-76. The base was declared contaminated by Rok and closed in 2006.

I got chronic hepatitis b, i got it from the Jet vaccine injectors that were being used back in the late 80’s. They stopped it in 97 because it can give people bloodborne infections. Mine was never documented by the army. However, when I joined the police dept i was vaccinated for hep b that should have protected me. Doctors are saying the vaccine wont help if I already have the virus prior to the vaccine. I was vaccinated sometime in 92-93. I was exposed to the jet injectors in 89 when I went through basic training. What is my chance in getting disability?

❤❤❤

Your video was very informative and straight forward, thank you so much.

Thank you for taking the time to help us. Veterans better understand this process. I, for one, sincerely appreciate your efforts. I have a question I was hoping you could answer. I 1st filed for PTSD in 2009 along with Tinnitus. I was extremely unstable at the time. I missed the C&P exam for PTSD and was able to make the exam for tinnitus.I was, of course, denied on tbe PTSD and awarded 10% for tinnitus. Fast forward 15 years later. I have been recently diagnosed with chronic PTSD I also have a mountain of evidence in regard to the real-life effects my mental health has caused in my life. Everything from a 5150 hold at the Va to chronic homelessness, a letter from my Law enforcement father that he told the VA " I burned all my bridges: which shows how isolated I am, to broken hands from fights documented at the Va to a SS employment records of the last 20 years of employment being under poverty levels to lastly Alcohol usage disorder. I just took a mental health evaluation at the VA, and the clinical social worker put 1. Chronic PTSD, Anxiety Disorder, and Alcohol use disorder. In your opinion, should I file a supplemental claim for the 1st denial for PTSD in 2009? Or should I file a new claim with Mental Health with all 3 of my diagnoses?

Added: also should have sales tax exemption???

Not Patrick McCurdy, my son helps. I'm still Darrell Monroe McCurdy, memorized my nametag!

VA rep called me twice and informed me that I do not qualify for property tax exemption with 100% disability, must be permanent and total. Since when is cancer not permanent (lung (2), skin, pancreas, spine) plus loss of hearing, tinnitus, acid reflux, ?) . Should take each case on own merits. Been at disability processing for more than 14 years, plus after retirement Jan 1985!
