Corpsman HM1 on deck, here to sprinkle a bit of positivity and share a bit about me and my journey with the claims process!

Started off in March 2017 with a 60% rating, now, fast forward to the present, February 2024, I've climbed up to a 93% rating (compensated at 90%). Had my share of C&P exams through this journey. If you're confident about your conditions and the secondary issues that come with 'em, don't give up just yet.

Going through the claims process might be emotionally draining at times, but it feels good to get recognition for all the injuries picked up during service at the end.

Welcome!

Hearing stories like this motivates me. I'm at 70% right now, but I have some claims in that could increase my rating to a rounded 90% or even 100% if everything goes in my favor.

For some, it's like grinding gears for years while others are out of the military with a 100% within months.

Keep pressing on!
