FAQ
The Veteran's service-connected motion sickness is rated under Diagnostic Code 7399-7319, effective from June 27, 2007. 38 C.F.R. § 4.124a. Again, the Veteran's specific disability is not listed on the Rating Schedule, and the RO assigned Diagnostic Code 7399 pursuant to 38 C.F.R.
No, there aren't any VA disability claims that cannot be proven. In fact, all VA claims must be proven on an “at least as likely as not” basis. If you have no evidence (no proof), your VA claim will be denied. Also, you must first ensure you're even eligible for VA disability benefits under the law.
Collect medical evidence from your doctor, including a nexus letter linking your diagnosis to a specific event or conditions present during your service time. Complete the official VA disability claim form and file it online or by mail, along with your supporting evidence.
Many people turn to natural remedies to manage motion sickness. Research shows that ginger and chamomile, as a tea or other beverage or in a hard candy, can help fend off nausea. Some people swear by anti-nausea wristbands, which trigger an acupuncture pressure point and are widely available over the counter.
If possible, try lying down, shutting your eyes, sleeping, or looking at the horizon. Stay hydrated by drinking water. Limit alcoholic and caffeinated beverages. Eat small amounts of food frequently.
VA assesses vertigo under diagnostic code 6204, focusing on peripheral vestibular disorders impacting balance. Veterans can receive a 30% rating if they experience dizziness, including occasional staggering while walking. A 10% rating is provided for occasional dizziness without staggering.
Lie down or close your eyes to reduce sensory conflict, and get fresh air to avoid strong smells. Remedies like ginger (tea, sweets, or capsules), acupressure wristbands, or medications can help relieve symptoms. Stay hydrated with water or clear fizzy drinks, and practice deep breathing to calm nausea.
As a veteran who's served your country with honor, you deserve support for service-connected health issues. If you're grappling with gastrointestinal (GI) problems related to your military service, you may be eligible for VA disability benefits.
Scopolamine (Transderm Scop). Most commonly prescribed medication for motion sickness. You have to take it before symptoms start. It comes in patch form to put behind your ear 6 to 8 hours before travel. If the patch is left in place, effects last up to 3 days.
Dramamine (dimenhydrinate) is a popular go-to remedy for motion sickness. It's somewhat effective at reducing symptoms, but it's also an antihistamine. Like all antihistamines, it may cause drowsiness, dizziness and decreased mental alertness.
