I have many denied claims, even after submitting doctors claim forms for flatfoot and ankle problems from a podiatrist. I ran 5 mile Mon thru Thursday and Friday 10 miles with boots without arches 1973 to 1976. I have no report at health clinics while in the military, but noticed my shoe heel had a bad wear to one side while on my first job after the military. I was not aware of reporting this to the VA at that time compared to the military now that will mentor you to do so. Now after many years after the fact my feet arches are collapsed and my ankle sits to one side. Anybody out there with experience on how to get a claim that I deserve. I'm exhausted and almost discouraged for the reason many Veterans will not pursue their claims.
