Question
vitaloca94
in 2000, i left active duty and filed a va claim. in apr 2001 i join a reserve unit. in oct 01, va denies my claim for depression, allergies, tmj and hypertension because they say i was in possession of my medical records. it wasn't true because i assume that my unit had them or was trying to get them. being young ,dumb and uninformed i let it go. fast forward to jun 03, after completing 6 months of being mobilized with my unit and being diagnosed with adjustment disorder, anaphalyxis to cats(allergies on a deadly scale) and asthma. lo and behold my medical records that were missing and that i was in control of just happen to pop up at my reserve unit who send them to va. i file and was denied. after talking to a friend, i file an appeal and and va rates me at 30% for adjustment disorder and 0% for tmj and hypertension, non service connection for allergies and asthma (although it was enough to force me to reclassify MOS and ultimely getting out the reserves). i didn't know i could reopen my claim for the depression so i did. after a lengthy appeal, i finally got rated at 70%. not including depression and ptsd.
so my question is did va make a CUE or does this get chalked to sucks to be you and glad it didn't happen to me. and is there a chance that my claim will be reopened?
any guidance and help will be appriaciated and just so you know two cents adds up
