I notice that Hoppy posted this. Does it exist?

I sure need a copy for this up-coming C&P, the 20th.

Thanks,

Betty

CG,

We will see where this adventure takes me.

I am going to take my records with me, as the last time I saw this

doctor, so many of my medical records were left out.

Thanks so much,

Betty

Good Betty, I am thinking a few things. I am not sure if the VA has assigned you this doc or you are paying outta pocket. First, if hippa paper needs signed, you may want to instantly add the VA/BVA or a trusted relative permission to gain access to your records or visit. Also you could give the doc 'copy' of your medical records (especially if its a slim package) to keep. Also recall most docs nowdays only keep medical records for 7 years, so immediatley get a copy of the exam on paper or cd. (or both!)

Best to ya,

Cg,

The VA sent me what ever you call them papers, to let me know

that I would receive notice of a C&P for increased compensation and

also for Unemployability.

Sure enough, I have received two notices from the medical center to

be there to see this PhD Psychologist.

Believe me I am much wiser today than I was in 2004 and 2005.

I will definitey be there to see him.

I am taking all of my medical records and definitely a copy

of his own C&P as he has already stated, my medical records

support that I quit my job in 1983 due to high stress anxiety.

I will make sure I take that particular medical record, so that

he can see where he read it and that I did not tell him this.

It is in black and white in my medical records.

The last C&P he was generous to tell me his decision, hoping to

to be so lucky this time.

Thanks a bunch! How are the young one's?
