continuity of treatment, symptomologyi went in for cp nov. 21. i was relieved to find out my smr contained information on an assault against me while in korea in 1974. it showed i suffered 3in. lac. to forehead, broken finger, br. bone in hand, injured wrist. there were more injuries but i didnt see it on the cp docs paperwork. the va doc said he was going to service connect me for my hand, but it wouldnt be much. i mentioned to him that va also requested exam on head inj. knee inj. and both elbows, he looked at his papers and sent me back for more xrays. i have seen private docs over the years, but sometimes there were long periods of time in between visits. i have a recent imo to support my case. since this assault was commited by 2 guys armed with bats/clubs and they continued the beating after i was on the ground and stomped me til i was unconscious, someone said i should get a psych. evaluation for ptsd. i waited long to file this claim, will that hurt my case. any advice appreciated.
