I recently received my rating for migraines. The rating was 0%. The rating decision stated I did not suffer from prostrating episodes and the examiner stated the migraines do not affect my work. This is a total contradiction to what I put down on my claimant medical history form I turned in to the examiner during my C&P exam. It was also contrary to what I stated to the examiner. I am going to send in a NOD. I'm just not sure what to include in the NOD.
I have a copy of the Claimant Medical History form I filled out (I try to copy everything). Would it be a good idea to include this and refer to it in the NOD?
Also, should I add new evidence in the NOD? I have gone to the VA hospital multiple times for my migraines, one being an ER visit where I was given an IV and an injection to help with the migraine. My primary care physician has scheduled a CT scan and a neuro consult. Should I add all this to the NOD or should I wait for the CT scan and neuro consult results before sending in the NOD?
Should I only include the Claimant Medical History form or should I also include the new medical evidence or neither?
