Hello and thanks to everyone who have answered my questions in the past.
I have filed a claim, went to the VA for the C & P exam, got a letter stating "at least as likely as not" from my specialist and one from my private Dr.
I am now writing my own statement to sent to the VARO along with the letters from the above doctors. I am hoping I get a favorable rating right off but of course I may not.
My question is: In my statement shall I refer to the "Benefit of Doubt Doctrine" or will they apply it automatically IF my claim is in a state of equipoise? Also if I should use it, what would be the correct wording?
