Thank you so much for the additional information everyone! I got my letter today via fax...and I saw an even bigger issue.
It states on the Reasons for decision:
"The evidence from Fayettville VAMC submitted in connection with the current claim does not constitute new and material evidence because it does not relate to an unestablished fact necessary to substantiate the claim and does not raise a reasonable possibility of substantiating the claim."
The problem here is I have never gone to Fayetteville VAMC, never lived in NC and none of the evidence they have on the claim states that anything came from Fayettville VAMC.
"The evidence from the copies from your Service Treatment Records submitted in connection with the current claim does not constitute new and material evidence because it was previously submitted and considered in the rating decision. of August 21, 2017"
Unfortunately for them that rating decision states that the evidence does not show an event, disease, or injury in service. Your treatment records do not contain complaints, treatment, or diagnosis for this condition. We did not find a link between your medical condition and military service.
Now, how could that second part be true when I submit a completely new document that was not previously available showing a clear diagnosis from the doctor in 2005? This sounds like the person who did my claim did a half ass job, copied and pasted some statements and pushed it up for a signature and it was approved. I need to definitely keep fighting this one.
