SPC Manny Managuit 4717197 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I got my result back from Tinnitus from the va for left ear. I went to the appointment, It was denied for not being service connect? Is that the end of the road or am I suppose to keep appealing? Shoulders and Knees was automatically denied and did not go to any appointments. This left me confused for many reasons.. What else can I do? 2019-06-12T19:04:21-04:00 SPC Manny Managuit 4717197

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You can appeal it, but I would look at using a Veteran Service Organization to help you through the process.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hello Brother,<br />The name of the game is to deny your first, to make you build evidence<br />APPEAL IT TILL THE COWS COME HOME. The game is to wear you down<br />so you give up. I had a Veterans Advocate. He said never give up. Been 100%SC for 22 years

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What was the reasoning for the denial? Were you in combat (ie combat action badge, CIB, etc?)?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Contact the DAV and, or the VFW they have people who can help navigate the tape. Additionally there are legal firms reaching out to Soldiers who have served during certain periods due to faulty earplugs. This is against the manufacturer not the government. Google it. Thank you for your service.
