Yesterday I recieved the letter from VA with the results of my Gulf War Registery Exam
Quote;
" The results of your physical examination, consultations, and laboratory tests have been reviewed and the findings are as follows;
1. Depression 8. Hemorrhoids 15. Arthritis Right Shoulder
2. Insomnia 9. Headaches 16. Sleep Apnea
3. Arthritis Right wrist 10. Recurrent Brochitis
4. Polyarthralgia 11. Nicotine dependence
5. Flat feet 12. Chronic Diarrhea
6. Gout 13. Hematuria
7. History of Kidney Stone 14. Arthritis left knee " End Quote.
These results are from my exam at the OKC Va Medical Center that was done in November..Several of the items cover some of my current claims..I am thinking of about trying to get a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia and the diagnose of Polarthralgia should support that..( I have constant joint pain in most of my large joints to include elbows,wrists,knees, shoulders and some back pain, plus the depression and some serious sleep issues)....My question is that since this is from the VA and signed by a VA doctor will it help support my claims that I have previously submitted..I am currently service connected 10% for right wrist (medical discharge in '94) arthritis..With the exception of the mental health issues (which I am in the system getting diagnosed currently) this covers most of my claims one way or the other . I am currently scheduled for another sleep study for the sleep apnea..It is not currently SC but being worked..I have submitted buddy letters about my snoring while on Active Duty....They have tried to deny my flat feet, depression, insomnia but I have provided letters and evidence and they are currently working my claims....I will be taking this to my service officer today and giving him a copy.......Thanks any thing that might help will be appreciated.......................Gridsmasher11
