C&p For Dmii Increase
I am going for a C&P exam for an increase in DMII. When I got 10% I was not using oral meds to lower glucose. Now I am using oral meds. My feet hurt worse and I have less endurance than I once did before DMII. Any hints or clues what to expect? The last time they just looked at my numbers which showed fasting glucose over 126. Now I have AIC over 7 without drugs (Metformin). Trying to practice what I preach. I am SC for DMII, PN and Coronary artery disease secondary to DMII. John

Multiple C&p Letters ?
Hello, I just recieved a letter from my RO in Atlanta after 12 days short of a year in Gathering Evidence (DUST), and noticed that the letter states that i am being scheduled for my C&P from an outside clinic. That's fine but I kept reading and noticed that their was two more copies of the same letter in the envelope. I commented to my wife that "do you really think that these people are that stupid to send the same letter three times"? I got to thinking today could this mean that I will be recieving three different C&P'S? Anyone else have this same thing happen to them? Either way I'm thrilled to death that something is happening after almost a year…

ptsd Wats The Best Way To Handle This?
I had a FDC in for Depression and Anxiety, most likely should have been for PTSD, but this is how it started with my shrink. I was seeing him for almost a year before I put anything in, thanks to everyone who convinced me. Here is my problem; I did an FDC becasue I didn't want to go through all of this over again. I am not gonna go thru everything but I have been hospitalized at the VA hospital, seen one of their shrinkd, etc. I just reciently had my knee replaced and they lumped it in with my FDC. Now I am scheduled for two C&P exams and I am terrified, I don't want to go over everthing again. It dosen't help me to keep repeating things. I don't want to think about t…

C&p Dr Decision
So I read my C&P, the Dr. wrote that there was no medical evidence based on my IMO from my own DRs to support a nexus that my PAD was secondary to my SC DMII. That does not should like she formulated her medical opinion based on her examination of me, which was brief. Am I off base here? Thanks, Hugh

When Are C&ps Usually Scheduled.
Is there a particular time when c&p exams are scheduled? My husband's claim is currently in "review of evidence". That seems like a likely place in the timeline to do a c&p. Thanks, Kate

ptsd Just Did My C&p And Have Questions
Hi. New here. I found this site while looking up some info regarding my recent exam. I have a few questions I would like to ask of anyone who cares to read. I just had my C&P. Almost missed it since my car took a dump on me. Thank god since now I know it is basically mandatory. I took the test for Tinnitus among others but i am mainly concerned with PTSD. I don't have any paperwork I can show and I am curious how long I must wait until i can get a copy of what the psychologist typed down? It's been like 2 days now. Regarding the exam, I have an issue where I tend to just get used to things and feel like it is normal. Example... 90% of my dreams involve someo…

C&p Doctor Increase Diagnosis Of Body Part That Wasn't Part Of Exam
Im currently 20% frostbite on my right hand. My latest C&P exam I claimed everything else on a new claim, left hand, BL foot BL ears, and nose. My C&P exam notes states that the C&P doctor changed the rating of my right hand from a 20% to a 30%(projected). Here is the question: Even though my service connected right hand wasn't part of my new claim, shouldn't the VA rater respect the new diagnosis by the C&P examiner and give me new rating without me formerly requesting an increase for my right hand? And what is the chance of the rater missing it? Is it something they look for? I heard that C&Ps might open up pandoras box to other items that is n…
