I think it's just that when it comes to benefits, every time there's a new benefit you're forced to reapply from square one, as if your injury has not existed. For example, let's say I need something new. I have to start at square one again and say, well, this is my long laundry list of injuries, yes, it happened in a special duty area, it happened overseas, yes, this happened....
That has been particularly onerous. There was one point when every six months I had to provide an update on my position, which included, yes, a doctor's note saying my legs were missing. I've been assured that will no longer be the case for the remainder of my vocational rehab services, but I have the feeling that I'll probably get a notice saying that I have to see my doctor to prove again that my feet are missing.
