OP, why are you fixating on the VA? Other posters and myself have pointed out that you are covered under Medicare and Tri-Care For Life, you don't need the VA for medical care. You will incur no out of pocket costs using these two medical care coverages. Nearly all doctors, clinics and hospitals accept them. Select a doctor(s) and start getting your medical care through them.
The only way you will get the VA to provide medical care is by applying for a disability due to exposure to contaminants at Camp Lejeune during the time frame specified to qualify for the disability. That process can take months.
