After the run around this morning, James had a Kathy call me, said the Director was who he wanted to assist me. Shut me up maybe?
Anyway, we discussed my claim and she said that it was a denial and I said O.K.
Let me ask you a question about the last Opinion that came from the VAMC.
I ask her to bring it up on her computer.
She did and I said look under Dr. Lxxxxx name do you see the words Examined Nov. 16, 2007 and she said yes, I said now look at the next line and it says examination results.
I ask her what examination for I haven't had one in almost three years.
She said " What". I advice you to waiver your 60 days and get this over the the BVA.
I thought, what the heck, why not. I have had it with the mess anyway. Believe it or not, she walked that darn file over to the BVA.
It is ready for processing first thing Monday Morning.
Anyway, shortly the letter of denial came.
Talk about Benefit of the Doubt? I haven't figured this one out yet. Dr. Muller who did the first C&P was never mentioned and neither was Dr. Cxxxxx.
They stated my medical records from 1965 - 1979 were Illegible. Don't how that dumb lady shrink read them and they couldn't.
She had down every drug that I have took.
Dr. Payne was not a Psychiatrist and could give him some weight.
DECISION Entitlement to service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include anxiety and depression remains denied.
REASONS AND BASES
Blah, Blah, Blah,
The expanded record was reviewed twice by the board of examining Psychiatrist.
They have determined that no change is warranted in the previous opinion that your condition predates your service and underwent no increase in severity beyond its' natural progress.
The VA. examiners have determined that your " disability " manifested in service was an immature personality.
After reviewing the evidence in its totality, we have concluded that the most current, credible diagnosis is the one rendered by the board of Psychiatrist.
Personality Disorder, not otherwise specified, with borderline, histrionic and dependent traits.
The Anxiety Disoder noted in the medical records was not diagnosed in service, and not noted in legible treatment records prior to 1979.

Well all you good folks,
After the run around this morning, James had a Kathy call me, said the Director was who he wanted to assist me. Shut me up maybe?
