I submitted my additional items for consideration the day I was discharged on 30 May 12. My e-benefits went from awaiting final approval to gather evidence. I had a appointment the other day at the Pensions and Claims off. Last I checked it said it could be 2015 before I get my final rating...

I went from it will be deposited in your account to your not entitled all in the same week. I talked with the attorney I was provided with and it was in my account a couple days later.

All I can say is stay on them. Make phone calls, what ever it takes.

I contacted the Jag lawyer that handled my case while I was still active.

I can't help much bu the DA199 form is Army. I was also told check was processed then told I would not recieve the taxes back and called my Jag lawyer and the money was in my account within a week.

Well, after 4 months of misinformation, frustration and being lied to I woke up to a $33,000 deposit in my account today. The system may be flawed but the sqeaky wheel gets the grease.

Still doing about the same health wise. Worked on the yard for a half hour the other day. I had to take two breaks, came in the house and puked and took a 3 hour nap. My new doc did start me on Humara and it seemed to help a little. I'm having a meeting tomorrow to talk about some new treatment...

Sent you a message with the numbers to the people I have been dealing with.

Here is the link with most of my info. Its been a while since I looked at it so I don't remember what all is there. I was found unfit for mixed connective tissue disease and fibromyalga and my right knee. The VA rated me for lose of range of motion in most of my joints. I have since been...

I recieved my severance the day of my discharge. I keep seeing about the discharge code's but that is a DA form and I was Navy, where would I find my code?

You can file the paperwork from post 6 20 days after discharge to recoup from DFAS or wait untill tax time and get it from the IRS. I would go with option 1.

Mine is worse in the kness, sucks.

Those can be hard on you, especialy the colchicine. I'm on Allopurinol now and have not had a flare in about 4 months and its not nearly as hard on your stomach.

What meds have you tried?

If you are rated at 0% from the Marines you do not pay back the severance.

I had my findings 45 days from the day they sent them off, pretty fast.

If the DOD rated you at 0% you will not have to repay the severance and you can file a form with DEFAS to recoup the taxes.

If you are found unfit and seperated/retired you can present the new conditions to the VA at your exit interview for VA rating.

Navy here and on prednisone for 4 months with no waiver for body composition.
