I took the Va claims academy course and it shows you how to get service connected. I’m service connected just waiting on an increases I also used the personal statement template that helps with the claim that gets straight to the point.
Thanks Jordan. Your video helped me get a extra 10% Thanks again
Thanks for another great video. Can you make one going in depth on BDD claims?
Youre awesome Jordan. Thank you for helping us 👍🏼🫡
Thank you for all these videos 🙏
Thank you for the video.
Great information.
I have chronic migraines (Almost everyday for the last 19 years) that is service connected and rated 0% and they won't increase it whatsoever. The doctors try to say that I don't accept treatment because they wanted me to do botox which is 30 shots in the face every 3 months and I said no.
I would definitely still go get a second opinion if you can then refile that increase
poison that paralyzes your face why no standard meds?
Go to a private doctor and get a second opinion. Invasive treatment is typically last resort, so if prescription medications haven’t been tried yet it’s an error on their part.
I get BFA, Botox injections and see the Chiropractor for my headaches/migraines. 50% for my migraines. The Botox injections are not painful at all.
Botox doesn’t work all that well for chronic headaches. Are you seeing a neurologist at the VA? Maybe you need to see a doctor outside the VA.
Any advice for a 66yo veteran whose records were burned in a house fire to get medical records? According to the VA their records from his time frame were lost when they transferred from 1 system to another.
Great info as always!
Cheers & happy Friday 🍻
The easiest way to get migraines claims approved is as a secondary. Also, be careful with using the word prostrating in a C&P exam.
Why do you say to becareful using the word prostrating during your exam?
@@Preppylover11 because it's not how normal people speak. They may accuse you of being coached by someone
It shouldn't matter, but the examiners and raters take offense to us using their terminology. I guess they see it as us being untruthful for describing our symptoms in their own words. I've been trying to understand my symptoms and the VAs definitions so I can explain them to the raters and my personal statements as accurately as possible. It sucks but we gotta make sure we don't shoot ourselves in the foot and get under rated because we didn't understand that our pain means very little compared to being prescribed medications or flexibility of joints, etc. The VA likes us uneducated so they can pull the wool over our eyes and deny, under rate, or reduce our rating and compensation.
I'm at zero with photophobia but I get headaches and/or migraines almost daily because of my eyes.
Start tracking your headaches/migraines, and talk to your provider to get on some migraine medication to see if that can help you.
I have headaches all the time, they range from mildly annoying to migraines that cause me to call in sick from work. I can't even get the VA to look into it.
This and your lasta upload spoke to my heart lol.
Good vid & info
Thank you, have a good weekend
Great information keep it coming, question if I am rated for 30% and should be rated higher do I need new evidence when its been with in a year? Thanks
Was it hard to get 30%? I am battling VA with my rating and I am denied. I been out for 12 years and no medical history. I have VA health and they have me on migraine medication
@@danielmchugh8231 yes it was it took over 20 years to get it but I wasn’t educated on the process and I blame myself keep fighting and it will come
Thank you!
I got denied for headaches after i was diagnosed with Demyelinating disease
I was recently diagnosed with severe sleep apnea in service, (I’m still active duty, retiring next year) I have frequent headaches. Can that be secondary to sleep apnea?
I would keep going to medical every week, and document everything. Migraines, tinnitus, anything that is a problem. It's so much easier to file as soon as you get out with all that information in your SRTs.
Your leaving out the most important part.. How to go about getting migraines service connected. I know I didn't have migraines till I came back from Iraq but I can't put a finger on one instants and say yep.... That's what did it that why I have migraines.. here it is C&P person here was caused it . I have tons of documents from my family doctor.. but how does that help. I have a years worth of migraine diaries. But I can tell you from experience no doctor I've shown them to cares one damn them . They just say wow that's a lot of headaches...
So how does any of that equate into helping get service connected?
I filed two claims for my migraines in 2008 and this year. I got a letter from my headache Dr with my migraine buddy records and was recently denied under direct connection from burn pits during the Gulf War. I hear your frustrations.
Question off topic. I’ve been to a chiropractor for about 4yrs now to treat sciatica. PCP says I also need to start seeing an orthopedic. For possible surgery. Would I need a nexus from both, chiropractor and ortho? Or can chiropractic be good enough? Thanks. Great videos
what if your retired and have the HA that knocks you out and can't do work around your place I have 26 acres that I live on and maintain, and there is work that need done everyday,
Keep up the good work brother....
Hey Jordan. What about if your at 0%. And you want a increase like I do? How would you go about it.
I ain't Jordan but I was in your shoes. Got rated 0%. Went on the VA website and went ahead and filed for an increase about a year after that 0% percent rating. I made sure to clearly state the symptoms I had been experiencing, but unfortunately I got the same person conducting the C&P exam. I filed for an increase again after moving 2 years later. Symptoms were the same as they had always been. Got a different "doc" for the C&P exam and I got 30% rating. Besides this the only difference I can think of was that I made sure not only to explain the symptoms but to explain the day to day impacts. I was clear and concise and it was definitely the shortest c&p exam for migraines I had up to that point. In my experience it really comes down to who conducts the C&P exam and how clear and concise you are. Not saying you weren't, but man it took me 4 total years before I got rated above 0% for that. The important thing is a 0% percent rating is still service connected so you have that under your belt.
What about a student who's not currently working
Requested HLR for Migraines 2nd to Tinituus. HLR was "Closed" same day submitted without requested Informal conference. Now saying HLR closed: Issues on review: 3 compensation issues. Still waiting for letter. Anyone else ever experienced that?
Are migraines considered a mental condition for a va claim like depression or anxiety?
Negative
Great video
can you do one on autoimmune disorders.
Can I bring a personal statement to the c&p exam?
I would suggest submitting it to your case representative
@@scelest321cx like my VSO?
Here I thought 2-3 a week was not frequent enough.
Are headaches a gulf war presumptive?
They are.
I wish I mentioned my migraines during service. When I feel anxious they get much worse and more frequent.
Project 2025 if implemented will limit the time to file a claim to 10 year and will make it tougher to qualify, along with drastic cuts.Veterans it is very important that you read it or at least Google it's changes to the VA.
lol omg let it go, that project 2025 has been around for over 15 years. They just keep changing the name . It never gets picked up because it’s career suicide
@@Trolling85551Project 2025 was established in 2022 ,Google it.I'm just stating what's written down in it.
Va don't want give you sh give the funds to the migrants us vet has to prove sh
