Thanks Buck52 but your article is from 2016. The Court of VA Appeals ruled in April of 2018 that chronic pain is rateable Here is the article and a link to the court ruling. https://www.military.com/militaryadvantage/2018/04/06/court-rules-chronic-pain-va-disability.html

I'll keep you advised. I filed another claim for chronic pain and I submitted all 23 pages of the Court ruling. I believe the rater was not familiar with the court ruling.

Court of US appeals for Veterans claims ruled in April of this year that chronic pain is a VA disability. I filed for chronic pain but was denied as the rater said it was not reconized. I am going to appeal with the 23 page court decision as documentation. Anyone else dealing with this issue? I am attaching a link to the article which also links to the court decision. https://www.military.com/militaryadvantage/2018/04/06/court-rules-chronic-pain-va-disability.html
