0 Notorious Kelly Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I'm sorry they're putting you thru this wringer; this may be an instance where it's best to seek out an attorney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 k5one Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 If you have the symptoms try to get a Physician to diagnose you with CFS, Fibromyalgia, and IBS. Then get them to complete DBQ's. Appeal. If you haven't already check out http://www.ngwrc.org/ I couldn't get the link to work, but that is the correct address. They have a lot of good information there.

0 Moderator broncovet Posted September 24, 2015 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) I recommend you get a copy of your cfile, and review it. See what it says, if VA "actually has" the evidence in the file, they may have it there, just did not read it, or they may have thrown away or never got key evidence. You then have 3 choices, and I would base that decision, in part or whole upon what it says it your cfile:1. Take Kelly's advice and get an attorney. Not a bad idea. It "might" cost you a portion of your retro to do this. 2. Work your claim yourself, dont expect a VSO to do this for you. You need to go through each denial and "refute" each issue with medical evidence in a NOD. This will take some time. If a VSO could have won your benefits, then he likely would have already done so.If the evidence is insufficient, then you may need an IME/IMO if your VA doc is unwilling/unable to provide you the required evidence. 3. Ignore the whole thing and do nothing until you pass the one year deadline to appeal. Its unlikely to be productive and puts you right back where you are now, just one year older and with a claim more difficult to work as you have claim "finality" working against you.

0 Navy04 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Sorry to hear of your issues bud, but as C&P doc stated, you can not be granted SC prior to the VA Docs officially diagnosing you. I have Severe Crohns Disease and Barretts Esophagus, in fact I am having a throat surgery next week, and yet I am only rated 30% for all of those conditions together. It just sounds like most of the conditions you are claiming, are what you are telling the VA, not what you have been diagnosed with Medical Evidence or DRs. It does not matter if you have a 100 disabilities, if they are not Medically Documented. It will continue to just be your word against the VA. If you have all of these medical conditions, then you need to get an IMO or Nexus from an outside DR to link all of your conditions to your time in Service. Very sorry for what you are going thru. Good luck and keep us posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me almost ten years of denials but I kept hammering them with the presumptive regs. It will work out for you. Just don't give up because that's what they want.
