Sweetn I went through the same thing. I'd get a lawyer. With YOUR seizures you cannot work. You should be fighting for 100& due to the unemployment issue. I would suggest a lawyer cause VA will take their time this I know for a fact. Maybe contact your local DAV rep. Good luck........x
how you doing falcon with your case???

I just was forced into an early medical retirement (Epilepsy) i was offered 60 percent of e-4 over 6 and no severance package even thow i had a line number and it was pass my sew on day 4 e- 5 any way i took the 60 percent and filed a va compensation claim and it has been some time & have not heard 1 damn thing all i receive is my af pension and i am having trouble finding a job in my area due to my condition. i have bills that are backing up juggling utilitie bills because i cannot pay them as well i just had a newborn child and i cannot seem to get an answer from the va! DID I SCREW MYSELF FOR ONLY TAKING 60 PERCENT, should i have gotten a lawyer? do i need 1 now ? how long does it take for the va to decide ? and when they do what percentage will i get if any?
