hi again read your intro post
hi again steve/lisa. Nice to see anothe vet. and you can try going through the VA, but so far it hasnt been of much help. As i was diagnosed in the military i figured id have a nice mental case haha, as far as the VA states any trauma caused during military service is under the responsiblility of the VA to take care of. WEll i found out thats a load of crap. not to say that the VA is all bad, i do infact get alot of meds from them, and for free, yes yes all you dear and loyal citizens pay for my HRT. Government is funny that way. Anyways, Some things they will cover, some things they wont, They actually consider me delusional, it is vary annoying living with that diagnosis. And unfortunately that directly led to a few overdoses, i hope you never have to experience that. Sorry i didnt read your posts sooner, i tend to go through spurts where i am reading everything in here on a daily basis to going through periods where i am away for several weeks, my attendance varies alot.
anyways, back to the VA, in all honesty, how you are treated has more to do with the dr you see, rather then the VA itself, as i have had both great doctors and really crappy ones, my current GP is a wonderfull lady, I have found that women are a great deal easier to talk to then men. That is my own perception though. And if you do talk to a Dr that is male, hope its a young one, if you get those older ones, they tend to have a really crappy attitude towards men who arent men. or men who are woman, or well whatever. younger drs are alot more understanding from my experience.
shoot im rambling again.
ill go now, best wishes
