Question
Cruinthe
My award date for PTSD was July 2002, but I applied for PTSD back in 2001. The VA lost my application but I have a copy of the original 4138 filed by the DAV. Plus a letter from the DAV county office verifying they sent it to the VA.
Since I missed the Special Claims Handling Procedures for Missing Documents deadline, should I file for reconsideration?
Also, I filed for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome back in 1993. I found the original 4138 while digging through my paperwork. I got service-connection for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in 2004. But the VA never gave me a C&P exam for CFS back in the 90's. I guess the disease wasnt really on the radar yet. I am currently 60% for CFS and I would like to file for Clear and Unmistakable Error for CFS and have the 60% granted back to 1993.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to proceed, I would appreciate it.
Again, I have the original 4138 for CFS in 1993, and the PTSD 4138 from 2001.
Thanks in advance
