C And P For Ptsd-Triggers

Question

I was given a C and P exam for PTSD due to MST. My question is in most MST cases, are C and P's scheduled after stressors have been conceded?

My examiner stated "After reading the C-folder, the electronic medical records, and the medical literature it is reasonable to conclude that the veterans allegations of manifesting PTSD as a result of sexual abuse (victim) are considered credible and the PTSD in question is fully linked to the service. The conclusions of these reports are based purely on the veterans allegations. This examiner does not have independent verifiable information as the veteran never reported the incident"

If my stressors have been conceded, they do I have an argument that the examiner is saying that the PTSD is fully service connected?

VA doctors dont concede stressors-they just give a nexus opinion.

It is up to the rater to concede or verify that a stressor occurred.

Do you have a vet rep?

Yes, i do have a rep, DAV, that have not had any contact with me since I filed the claim in May 2010, with the exception of forwarding evidence I sent them to the VARO. Thanks for any assistance.

I was just hoping that maybe the stressors(unreported MST) had been conceded and that is what provoked the C and P, just pulling at bits and pieces right now.

The Regional Office should be able to tell you a) They are still researching the stressors issue; or b) Your stressor has been conceded; or c) Your stressor is not conceded. I would call them and ask specifically about that issue.

Thank you for your service to our country.

All the Best,

Joe

P.S. The VARO might not want to tell you where things stand ... although I think they should! sleep.gif
