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

As a combat veteran, or any veteran for that matter!!!
If you thought the fighting was over when you came home, got out, or when the politicians said it was over.
Welcome to the real fight, welcome to VA claims!!!
