Headaches (including Migraine Headaches)
Can some one provide there opinion because I am confused about the nurse medical statement: "The condition claimed was at least as likely as not (50% or greater probability) incurred in or caused by the claimed in-service injury, event or illness" I think she's referring to the GWI issues of this C&P when she said ? "at least as likely as not (50% or greater probability) incurred in or caused by the claimed in-service injury, event or illness" This has to do with a C&P I recently had for GWI. The C&P nurse said I didn't have any proof to claim CFS, IBS, or Fibro Instead when I showed her what I did have she pulled out from my medical recor…

hearing loss Abnormal Contralateral Reflexes
Claim for hearing loss was denied. During the C&P exam an immittance test(tympanogram) was done. This test consists of testing the ipsalateral reflexes and the contralateral reflexes. The examiner checked the box that my immittance test was normal. Underneath this,box, a different set of boxes were checked indicating that I have abnormal contralateral reflexes in my left and right ear. Is this grounds for a CUE, or should I file a NOD?

HELP! the BVA Appeal is a screwed up mess ! They are sending me back to do the exams 3rd time!
This is updated, (10-22-16) My first attempt failed when writing this I was exploding because of receiving crazy news... BVA appeal I went to my C&P exams, Jul and August 2016. The first time (3 exams), I went, then they said I had to repeat (I repeated one). I went back and repeated. Now today. , late in the day on a Friday they call me and tell me, through a 3rd party service they said the VA uses, that I have to go the exams. I tried telling them I completed them a few months ago. it didn't help, they gave me phone numbers. I tried those numbers and were worthless! absolutely worthless! They must have lost my exams, double booked, I don't know and no…

Exam scheduled, but doesn't say C&P!
Hi all! VA sent me a letter saying that they sent a request for a private medical facility to do an exam to determine the level of my disabilities? I filed a claim and the status of that claim is gathering of evidence. My question is why would the VA request an exam requesting the level of my disabilities? Thanks for all the help.

C&P Opinion
Please let me know your thoughts on possible rating: OPINIONS: The veteran still suffers from right ventricular dysfunction as the result of tricuspid regurgitation discovered by transesopageal echocardiogram performed 5 Sept 1995 in-service. To ascribe now a present right or left ventricular ejection fraction would require cardiologic studies not orderable by C&P examiners. RATIONALE: Service treatment records as well physical examination board proceedings via VBMS, CPRS, physical examination, radiologic findings of 12 OCT 2016 as well as examiner's clinical experience. Other notes from exam: [X] (1-3 METs) This METs level has bee…

Respiratory Conditions
In 2010 while I was on active duty training I was hospitalized for a month. For walking-pneumonia, pneumothorax, hemothorax ,decortication and thoracotomy. I had 3 major surgeries in 48 hours, 2 blood transfusion, placed in a chemically induced coma and placed on a ventilator and life support. I spent two weeks in ICU. While recovering I had to re-learn how to eat, talk and walk. I some how turned into a vegetable. With this being the first time I've every had to go to the hospital I was traumatized by the visit. At the time I was 19. Since this was ADT, and not AD a LOD was done and found "NOT IN THE LINE OF DUTY." "NOT DUE TO OWN MISCONDUCT." Because I was receiving tre…

How do you complain about QTC C&P exam administration?
QTC makes you use (multiple) 15 to 30 minute queue tell-you-nothing telephone calls for everything. They want to schedule you in 3 work days and make you use a screwed up system that takes 3 days of telephone calls to figure out with boot-strapped complicated passwords that never work unless you have 2 man months lead time (ymmv.) Then they send you mail that takes 2 weeks which you may or may not receive just in time. Then the result is a student who often just graduates 1) Psychology or 2) Psychiatry. My Psychology graduate did not do ANYTHING correct in my Anxiety C&P except commit fraud. I have an IMO in for about a year now. I have a tbi C&P coming up wi…
