  1. Thanks everyone for the replies. We do have a very good attorney now for our CAVC level filing. Hopefully, he can get this claim somewhere. It’s just horrible how our veterans are treated. My husband has nexus letters from 2 neurologists, genetic testing (which showed at birth,his genes were normal), and much more, etc. What’s even more ridiculous is that the USMC reached out to him in 2008 to let him know he was exposed, yet they deny his bizarre health issues are related. I feel so bad for anyone that has to prove their medical issues are related to this water exposure. The VA does everything possible to deny you at all costs. Ms Scarlet
  2. My husband has now been denied at the BVA level (only took us 7 years). He has every neurological issue there is and he was at Camp Lejeune in the late 70’s. They keep stating that this didn’t start while he was in the USMC or within 7 years afterwards. We have 2 very good nexus letters, we had a review from a physician that we never met (that was favorable for my husband), we even had genetic testing and he had no markers genetically at birth. yet he was still denied. The VA states that this didn’t manifest in the military or within 7 years afterwards. It was more like 15 years afterwards but we didn’t know about CL until 2009. They also mention that since his ancestry’s was Northern European, that’s most likely why he has these issues. SMH….(you can’t make this garbage up). Probably 75% of the US is Northern European but not 75% of us have these neurological issues. Anyhow, how do you get around the timeframe issue. He probably had symptoms years before he got them actually checked out but we have no proof of that. This is so frustrating…he is very ill. Every day is a struggle and he probably won’t be able to walk here eventually. I appreciate any help.
  3. https://youtu.be/rDMLP1R-LDc This veteran had waited over 3 years on his CLCW claim. This was the physician that was going to do his SME exam. Absolutely unacceptable. If you have been sent to a physician via LHI, you had best check their license background. The SME program is a mess.
