The Service Connection Section - Military Veterans come in here to find help getting your Service Connected Disability Rating increased
- Thread starter godofwine

Post traumatic stress disorder and sleep apnea are your biggest heavy hitters far as rating scores
Yep mental issues. I got 70% out the gate for anxiety. Bout to file for increase to get me at 100
Hit me up and I’ll send you a migraine sheet. Don’t submit your claim without this sheet.
Right now I got a claim in for sleep apnea. I am going to do a claim on my back next.
Sleep apnea and deteriorating back pain will get you through the door.
When applying for PTSD Make sure you tell the claims rep that you’re unable to hold a steady maintain a steady relationship and you don’t have any friends and you cannot maintain friends. if you have a significant other, also add in that your nightmares make you wake up violently attacking your loved one while you’re asleep.
When applying for any type of pains that’s dealing with your back or joints you really have to sell it. if you’re driving to your medical appointment, you have to assume that they got cameras everywhere from the time you get out of your vehicle need to limp and look like you in pain from that when you go in to see the doc you complain about and make sure that you move slowly and gingerly like everymovement is a discomfort to you.
Doctors try to be slick and drop a pin seeing if you had been over to help pick them up don’t do it
You touch your toes and you apply for back problems. Tell them that you are unable to do it.
Mine is for my back.
For sleep apnea make sure you’re tired as hell you might want to stay up the night before the make yourself exhausted as possible. drink a little liquor for good measure, but make sure to brush your teeth to wash the smell off
Oh and make sure your 100 permanent and total. Cause if you're not they can decrease your rating at any time
I was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea in October and issued a machine. But as I said sleep apnea used to be automatic 50%, but VA is making changes to make it difficult for that 50 so folk need to do an intent to file immediately to get grandfathered in
Stay far away from these mofos.
Their organization is a For-Profit organization. It’s backed up by Republicans and right leaning Democrats.
The GOP hates the VA cuz it’s really socialized healthcare which they hate. Similar to Medicare/Medicaid.
The organization was created so they could push Veterans towards them and away from the VA.
If you notice, you see them heavily advertising on FOX NEWS, NewsMaxx and OAN and on Conservative Websites and radio stations.

Man they’re still on my review, it was submitted in October 23,
I had another appeal for foot issue, still waiting
Got 40% for my back. They will trick your ass! Take a chaperone into the test with you. Have them record your shit. Would you like to know more?
PM me
got damn get that money 
I exposed some black filth baiting him out. His partner living in another country came out of the closet on me today.
I don't want ignorant, black trash chasing after me like some puppy dog. I predicted some lame scheme like this would be used.
I am starting to get angry, like violent angry. I am putting you clowns in a landfill soon.

Let me get that migraine sheet
I get insomnia with my PTSD. Can I get sleep apnea as well? I'm under the impression that you can only get one since the two are opposite of each other.
Pretty sure you can get both
In need of one as well. Tried to reach out but can’t initiate pms
This is a precarious place to be without another large percentage claim to file. For example you would need a 50% claim approved to get to 100 using VA math. So you need to look at what you may have that can be multiple smaller claims that would be equal to 5 of your remaining 10 points.
Foot/knee pain (bilateral)
GERD/IBS/Chron’s
Migraines
Tinnitus
Also review your claim letter again and see if you have maxed out percentages for the stuff you previously claimed. The letter actually tells you what would be the max percentages and what needs to be demonstrated to upgrade. If you have some of those that may be a way in as well.
I have both PTSD (50%) and Sleep Apnea with CPAP (50%).
He willl need a sleep study, though.
Don’t know this answer unfortunately, fam. I will ask around.
Over 1 million claims related to toxic exposure granted under new veterans law, Biden will announce
President Joe Biden, intent on selling his legislative accomplishments this election year, will travel to New Hampshire to detail the impact of a law that helps veterans get key benefits as a result of burn pit or other toxic exposure during their serviceBySEUNG MIN KIM Associated Press

WASHINGTON -- President Joe Biden, intent on selling his legislative accomplishments this election year, will travel to New Hampshire on Tuesday to detail the impact of a law that helps veterans get key benefits as a result of burn pit or other toxic exposure during their service.
In raw numbers, more than 1 million claims have been granted to veterans since Biden signed the so-called PACT Act into law in August 2022, the administration said Tuesday. That amounts to about 888,000 veterans and survivors in all 50 states who have been able to receive disability benefits under the law.
That totals about $5.7 billion in benefits given to veterans and their survivors, according to the administration.
“The president, I think, has believed now for too long, too many veterans who got sick serving and fighting for our country had to fight the VA for their care, too," Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough told reporters on Monday.
The PACT Act is relatively lower profile compared to the president’s other legislative accomplishments — such as a bipartisan infrastructure law and a sweeping tax, climate and health care package — but it is one that is deeply personal for Biden.
He has blamed burn pits for the brain cancer that killed his son Beau, who served in Iraq, and vowed repeatedly that he would get the PACT Act into law. Burn pits are where chemicals, tires, plastics, medical equipment and human waste were disposed of on military bases and were used in Iraq and Afghanistan.
But before the PACT Act became law, the Department of Veterans Affairs denied 70% of disability claims that involved burn pit exposure. Now, the law requires the VA to assume that certain respiratory illnesses and cancers were related to burn pit or other toxic exposure without the veterans having to prove the link.

GOW,
You have to have the Notice of Disagreement in within 90 days. No one knew the answer and I played phone tag with my VSO friend since we’re both busy. This is also online as available I for with a bunch of legal office that fight downgrades. My suggestion is just building relationships with VSOs and working through them to submit your letter.
Sorry for the delay.
Man thanks for the info….I’ll definitely look into it.
Fuck. I got so busy with life I miss the deadline. Is there any way getting around it?
Will have to check when I get back stateside. I’m in a beach somewhere right now, man….
