Just got copies of my C & P Exams from the records office at VA. If at all possible could I get some feedback as to what each of these may bring percentage wise? I am currently 90% and looking to get to 100%.
PTSD
Diagnosis: Axis I: Postraumatic stress disorder with depressive features. Axis II: None. Axis III: Physical Conditions. Axis IV: Health and Financial Difficulties. Tendency for social isolation. Axis V: 57 (I asked to be SC for this)
Essential Hypertension
Diagnosis: readings of 170/100 168/98 170/98 on continous medication (Asked for increase from 0%)
GERD
Diagnosis: GERD symptoms under control with constant medication. (I asked to be SC for this)
Internal bleeding hemorrhoids
Diagnosis: Internal bleeding hemorrhoids, verified by colonoscopy. On symptomatic treatment, Anusol HC. (Asked for increase from 0%)
Bronchial Asthma
Diagnosis: Treatment with albuterol Inhaler as needed. PFC tests 79% (Asked this be seperated from my sleep apnea and be rated by itself)
Plantar Faccittis
Diagnosis: Bilateral pes planus, mild degree. (Asked for increase from 0% due to orthodics not helping)
Neuropathy
Diagnosis: Diabetic neuropathy, moderate degree, affecting all extremities. (Asked to be SC for this)
Migraines
Diagnosis: Stress-related Headaches (Asked to be increased from 0% for migraines. I take Fiorcet and turned in a Migraine calander 2-3 a month)
Thanks in advance.
Is anyone out there that may offer some advice on these?

I retired from the Army on 1 August, recieved my decesion from the VA o/a 1 Sep. I used the BBD (Benefits Before Discharge) program. It really worked great.
I am currently preparing my stuff for reconsideration on several things as well as trying to get a few more documented. I never filed for PTSD, I have a CAB and am currently being treated now that I am out with medication (Didn't want/afraid of stigma while on active duty, so I just lived with it). Also my PMC doctor said I have mild diabetic neuropathy in both feet and hands ( I have a pins/needles tingling sensation). Also I have developed a problem with acid reflux over the last 6 months. So I will be trying to get these things SC'd. Been told shouldn't be a problem as I am also 20%SC for Diabettes already.
Ending my introduction, Thank you all for your Service!

I filed for ED they gave me a 0% rating but also gave me SMC K I think at $96 dollars. My decision letter said secondary to DM II.
