Some rate hard and some don't. If you're not happy with what you're rated, disagree with it or if you feel it's worse later you can resubmit it. I've never had issues with these claims. It's more of the physical claims rather than the psychological claims that I typically have trouble with. You can rate all over the board with it from 0% up to 100%Response by SGT Justin Anderson made Aug 14 at 2020 5:39 PM2020-08-14T17:39:34-04:002020-08-14T17:39:34-04:00SFC James Cameron6207712<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It’s all rolled up under the PTSD label, sleep apnea, migraine headaches, and chronic pain are individual claims on their own. <br /><br />Now every case is different on ratings claims. I had a chronological record of care in regards to the chronic pain, and migraines following IED exposure. So your claim may very well be different.<br /><br />I was awarded 50% for PTSD alone.Response by SFC James Cameron made Aug 14 at 2020 11:06 PM2020-08-14T23:06:58-04:002020-08-14T23:06:58-04:00MSgt Don VandeBogert6207947<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hit up your local VSO as well. They have a wealth of knowledge on submitting claims. Without them I know I would have missed quite a bit from my records.<br /><br />Good luck.<br /><br />V/R<br />BogieResponse by MSgt Don VandeBogert made Aug 15 at 2020 1:31 AM2020-08-15T01:31:48-04:002020-08-15T01:31:48-04:00AA Whitney-Elizabeth Moates6208012<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have PTSD due to MST and Survivors Guilt with Severe Anxiety Disorder, Traumatic Brain Injury with various other body injuries that required surgical procedures...It still took over 10 years to figure out how to file and deal...80 paid at 100 and they are increasing me up to the full 100 since they found nodules in my right lungResponse by AA Whitney-Elizabeth Moates made Aug 15 at 2020 3:00 AM2020-08-15T03:00:00-04:002020-08-15T03:00:00-04:00CSM Darieus ZaGara6208202<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Ratings are based on severity and connectivity to your service. You have obviously been rated as they are treating you for these things. In order to influence the rating (if appropriate) You will have to sum it the documentation identified by others to re-assess your status. What other rate for the similar issues is not going to align with yours. The formula for calculation is fairly straight forward and you should receive a copy (should have received) if the determination and how your issues equates to the value of your determination.Response by CSM Darieus ZaGara made Aug 15 at 2020 6:24 AM2020-08-15T06:24:18-04:002020-08-15T06:24:18-04:00MAJ Ken Landgren6209380<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I wrote a PTSD/Depression Paper that has helped many people.
