I have been a long time reader of this group, and its kept my hope up, and shared some happiness knowing others are getting the help they need. Well here is my long story short, i filed for benefits aproximately 12 years after my initial contract, and only 6 years after I was discharged from beimg recalled. I did my paper work, and only claimed issues that truly happened while I was in the Army, and everything corresponded with my medical records. Everything was denied, except tinnitus. Which I was expecting from all the stories I read. So i filed my nod. Fast forward to 6 months ago I finally got to see my first doctors. 3 in one day. Each one agreed it was service related and told me what was written. My appeal moved around for two days it got all the way to notification, and then back to preparation for decision, and no movement since. Well 2 days ago it completely disappeared. Nothing pending. Nothing in va letter, no new disabilities, no pending disabilities just completely gone. So I called the VA and they said it is still open, didnt really say why it wasnt there. Has anyone had this happen to them? If so what was your outcome. Just for additional info depending how things are gauged, but the doctors recommended 50 on item, while i had 4 other serious injuries that they confirmed relation to service. Am I stressing over nothing? Thank you for reading, and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
