The first part of your question was stated as, should I hit the button that says "Make decision now" Caution on this part. if you click on that button, "make decision now", it means that all the information you, or your VSO have submitted is all they " the rating board may need, even if they have the records you need in your C file someplace. Files and specific records seem to become lost or overlooked. If you communicate with your service officer, he or she can scan the documents you are concerned about to the VA You could also scan the documents, files in yourself through E benefits. Years ago I was going down the same road as you are now. My VSO ( Veterans Service Officer ) stated to me, don't rock the boat and I ended up not getting my claim approved. I ended up submitting my claim myself. There is a lot to say on your situation, just get the advice that fits your situation and run with it.
