[What Type Of Doc Should Write An Letter For Ptsd Tdiu?]

I'm 70% for ptsd. Does the letter have to come from a shrink or could my family doctor write the letter since he has a copy of my last C&P and has read it? Also, my last C&P was in January of 2009, would I have another one or could they still use the last one?

[Doc Letter For Tdiu]

OK. I am 70% for PTSD. I go to the vet center once in a while and see a counselor. The last time I was there I told him I did not think that I could work any more. He told me to see a VSO about TDIU. Now I need to know if I need a letter from him, or from a shrink or if my family doc would work. If it needs to be a shrink, can it be a Ph D counselor or does it need to be an MD? Should I just get a letter from my family doc and then they will have me see a shrink for a C&P? I had a C&P in January of 2009 with a GAF of 41. My family doc has a copy. If he wrote a good letter and made reference to this exam could I avoid another C&P?
