Question

Okay, im kinda new to this but found this site helpful in the past with the questions i had through reading past post. So heres my scenerio... i got a call about a month ago for c&p exam to evaluate my current condition of major depression/ anxeity rated at 100% to see if it had worsened or improved. I went in a week later for the exam. I felt like everything went well b/c i was just honest about what i am going through and the things that happened to me to bring me here. At the end of the appt. she stated that my condition hadnt gotten better but was actually worse and definitly needed diffent meds. Long story short, yesterday i got "the letter" from DAV "this was not intended to serve as official notice but..." i go on to read and it states " Evaluation of PTSD with major depressive disorder (previously evaluated as depressive disorder and panic disorder with agoraphobia), which is currently 100 percent disabling,is continued." i guess my question is i didnt even know i put in a claim for PTSD, although they did say something about in my award letter in 2006 but since i didnt put in for it they hadnt evaluated me for it, thats not even what i was told i was going in for... but with this new Dx will increase my chances of getting P&T? Thanks

Does the rating state that you are going to be reevaluated? Is there a future exam date in the boxes at the top of the rating? Authorized chap35? If authorized, you are P&T.
