Question
*Bergie*
How can the VARO deny a claim without a C&P exam. Can someone tell me!!!
They are so heartless, and truely do not care about veterans (not that this is anything new). I am already struggling with PTSD and suicidal thoughts and then this. At this point I guess I just need to talk to someone. I left Iraq in 2003 with swelling in my lower legs documented on my "post deployment health assessment", Gulf War registry exam and several other doctor visits. The funny this is, I was told it was caused by the heat and would resolve in 3-4 months. Well 6 years later it's still their but worse. I have no diagnosis for it but have narrowed it down to venous insuffiency on my own. My claim was for "swelling in my legs" maybe a mistake since I had no diagnosis, but my PCP told me the C&P doctor would send me for the necessary tests to diagnose the problem. Why do the VAMC doctors assume the VA C&P raters give a SH-IT. Well I don't know what else to say I'm not thinking very straight right now I hope you guys can help answer my cry for help.
Take care
Bergie
