Since I didn't have any idea at what the VA may have of medical file in my C-File, I requested a copy of my VA medical records on CD.
The Disk arrived today by FedX. It is self loading, but their is no instruction as to this point. The second time I loaded it, I had to select which drive and go from there. It uses Microsoft Office document imaging. One problem I noticed right away, the print was clear but it looked faded and made it hard on my poor eyes. Also there is no endex to go by, but there is a page by page listing on the left of the document similiar to what Adobe reader uses.
Now I have a lot of veiwing and reading to do, so I can make and endex and find what is available to support my current claim and the new one to come after it.
At least now I won't have to worry about loosing a hard copy or trying to go through all the paper to find what I need. With an endex, it should make thing a bit easier to find. It's not a perfect system, but it seems it is going to be better than what I had had to deal with in the past when I needed a particular document.
I still have to see if everything is their, including Cat scans, MRI's, and Xrays.
You all might consider getting your VA Medical Records of CD.
