Service Connect Fibromyalgia
Sarahnknapp replied to Sarahnknapp's question in Eligibility - Veterans Compensation Benefit Claims
Hey Pete, Thank you for the reply. Sorry to be so.........quizative, however how do I get the doctors to connect it? The specialist states on his profile I guess, that he does not take on any claim related cases. And frankly there are not a whole lot of Rheumatologist's running round my area. Thanks -
Service Connect Fibromyalgia
Sarahnknapp posted a question in Eligibility - Veterans Compensation Benefit Claims
I was discharged from the USAF in 2003 by the MEB for "chronic recurrring stress fractures" for stress fractures in the lower extremities. I have had chronic pain ever since. I was just last week diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (I currently only have a 10% rating) I have medical records from the doctors for all these years of unexplained pain. The doctor at OHSU in Portland (A rheumatologist) has now diagnosed me. Do I have to connect the fibromyalgia to the fractures? How do I do that? I'd appreciate any suggestions or help. Thank you.
