Moderator broncovet Posted January 14, 2010 Moderator Share Posted January 14, 2010 First, you should concern yourself with your health. Ask the doc what he recommends. If you think that your shoulder injury is SC, then by all means file a claim for it, if you havent already, and if you have, and this is "New and Material Evidence", then you should tell your RO about it with a 21-4138.
