I am currently rated at 60%. I was seeking increase for my anxiety disorder which is 40% and 20% for diabetes. At my c&p exam Saturday, I was diagnosed with MDD. I am thinking this is a good thing for my increase. Is MDD a increase in the severity of anxiety or because it is a new diagnosis, will it end up in a seperate category for disability? Also your thoughts on the likelyhood of an increase?

Incompetence
Brother Gate replied to b.white_low's question in PTSD Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Claims
I would advise you to get a trusted power of attorney who would have responsibility over your finances. If the VA has rendered you incompetent, they will never trust you to manage your finances. Hope this help -
ptsd Combate Certificate
Brother Gate posted a question in PTSD Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Claims
Hello All, I received a Combat Certificate from the 1st Air Cavalry when I was discharged from Nam in 1971. Does that certificate qualify as a CIB for compensation purposes for PTSD. -
Welcome home to all the brotherhood. Question? I received a 1st Airmobile Combat Certicficate from the 1st Air Cavalry when I left Vietnam in 1971. Would that be qualified as a CIB for compensation purposes for PTSD. I have been denied because of lack of documentation and proof of stressor. I have been searching for something on this had have come up empty handed.
