Hello,
I was stationed at Camp Lejeune on base for over a year during the time the toxic water was present. Currently I am rated at 60% disability from other conditions. But it has come into light that the things listed that cause physical problems there at Camp Lejeune many have created problems for me. Fortunately I have not been diagnosed with cancer but under the Neurobehavior effects these conditions I'm experiencing have been the main factor for not allowing me to work full time up to the time I needed to take an early retirement, approximately 7-8 years.
Here's the thing, I'm wondering if can help with my current claim I've submitted regarding the toxic water at Camp Lejeune. Regarding the Neurobehavioral effects claim I've listed Insomnia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Loss of Memory, Poor Motor Skills, Dizziness, Anxiety and Tension. In addition I have submitted a Nexus letter from my private doctor confirming all the problems I've been experiencing with connecting evidence. It is is the review stage with the VA currently. First off would there be anyone else here that has experienced these problems? And if so would there be a C&P requested? I have no problem with the C&P. But I'm wondering if this could increase my disability rating?
Thank you.
Maury
