I get it that the VA is a difficult organization to deal with at times. I have had many struggles with various issues,, that were really my fault. Of course it would be easier if there was a "one stop solution provider". But there is not one. So a VA Hospital is really a group of powerful kingdoms with different rules for each one. There are many gate keepers that control the flow of information and forms in and out. Nothing happens quickly. Follow up is your best friend. Even ER doctors in the civilian world do not know much about ALS. So the VA peeps sometimes group you up with all the other diseases and make a blanket assumption about you. So find good folks, get good numbers and email addresses....Most of All Thank them.
I walked into an office at the VA. The door hit the guys desk. It was a 12 ft by 6 ft corridor converted into two offices. WWWHHAATT? No wonder. This sucks. No windows, door hits the desk! Dismal I say.
