Filed claim in March 2009 - Denied; Submitted NOD electing de Novo review and had my DAV Rep request conference with DRO. Never got the conference and the original denial was upheld. Claim was for amendment of original rating of Cardiac Arythmia (PVC) to Mytral Valve Prolapse and service connection for Stenosis of 3 coronary arteries of 50 - 60 percent.
Submitted VA FORM 9 and received letter "Substantiating" my appeal in November 2007. Hasn't moved since. Meanwhile, submitted additional medical evidence of Stent implants (2) in Aug 2007, and received Supplemental Statement of the Case (total of 1 form original AO and two from DRO.)
No one can/will tell me why my case is still in DRO. AMC doesn't even know me, thus my appeal has not been sent there nor has the Board of Veteran Appeals received anything on my "Substantiated Appeal."

Any ideas/suggestions?
