Was happy with the VA until now. I called in to have insulin refilled by mail as usual, was sent wrong item and recalled to explain I was out of insulin and was informed by pharmacy that it would take 1 1/2 weeks to get more to me, I explained that I would probably be dead by then but was told it didn't matter and my only option was to wait. Needless to say this has definitely lowered my rating. In the past my life was saved by the VA with an operation to remove cancer, I guess they feel it's now fair that they take what they once saved.

For more than 10 years the physician staff (with few exceptions) have continually let me down, from primary cares to mental health. Complaints fall on deaf ears or uncaring ears. This hospital is a prime example of why vets commit suicide.

American Motorsports Gaming | Sep 26, 2019
Dummie | Sep 25, 2020

Then don't listen to the first post Berenice, I have been helped and am currently being helped by the VA and know many others who have been helped as well. Yes their mental health is backed up, but they do care and will make sure you're heard, this OP seems to be speaking from frustration not facts, you can request to speak to higher ups, all the way up to the hospital director, you can change providers, you can look into community facilities, you can choose to go Therapy or medicine or both. A PRIME EXAMPLE OF WHY VETS COMMIT SUICIDE IS THIS FATALIST DEPRESSION FUELED OUTLOOK AND OP IS PASSING IT ALONG WITH POSTS LIKE THIS. I have physically prevented a suicide in the past, been treated at mental health, and also worked at the VA, for every story like this there are many many veterans who have followed the process and stayed the path to get the help they need and deserve. Best of luck to you and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Maria Hernandez | Sep 26, 2018
Jennifer Cruz | Sep 26, 2018

You sound overwhelmed. You should call the VA or see a therapist for your own mental health first. They can give you guidance on how to deal with it. As for your husband, you can't really do much for people who refuse to get help.

ronald davison | Sep 26, 2017
Mary Fey Long Norris | Sep 26, 2018

Yes, apply and they will evaluate your hearing loss and if the onset was due to your service. You will then be given your results and percentage of coverage. My father was at zero for years. Had him re evaluated and he was granted a small percentage of coverage plus a monetary monthly allotment. Definitely worth looking into.
