    More of Female veterans do have sexual dysfunction is also should be addressed more. Is it uncomfortable and embarrassing? Yes,most definitely but it can be connected to service connected disability. The sad thing is that many of us didn't know we could qualify for the extra benefit. I was told that it was for meant only for erectile dysfunction. It's frustrating

    I had to have a triple arthrodesis on my right foot involving the fusion of three joints in my foot. The pain from the impingement is taken care of but now my foot doesn't flex. The atrophy from being so lethargic from pain has been life ruining to the point of an attempt to join the 24 a day club. I have kids and the stress of when will I not be able to take care of my family is a daily battle. Where can I go to get help from someone that knows how to help? Any help would be great and thanks in advance.

      Just apply for SMC and let them decide which one to grant you. Form 21-0966. Good luck!! And you don't need to be missing any part/s. If you need A&A with bathing, staying safe and others you qualify for SMC-L and K!!!

    Do I have to tell my VA Nurse Practitioner to give me a diagnosis first before I put a claim in and do I have to wait a certain amount of time before I file the claim. She has already put me on ED pills 💊

    • @rogersmith7808
      @rogersmith7808 Год назад +5

      Your NP can't diagnose erectile dysfunction (i.e. there's no test to see if you're able to "perform" or not) but they can annotate your records. Hopefully you have a service-connected condition you can tie it to (mental health condition, high blood pressure, etc). In my case I was service-connected for hypertension and the meds they gave me are known to sometimes cause erectile dysfunction so it was an easy claim to win. The whole C&P exam took 15 minutes where the guy asked me about my ability to get hard and then did a quick visual examination of my junk.
