This response from your doctors and the VA examniners make perfect sense! I am very glad you have your proper rating and what to personally thank you for sharing these results for other veterans like me that suffer from these type of conditions.

The buttocks sharp intermitten pain has been a mystery to my doctors and myself after years of MRI's and cortizone shots I was told that it was more than likely stress or to put it mildly in my head!! I take perosecpt for pain everyday and if out of that 800mg ibuprophen. I wonder how many other vets have been denied for theses same issue and have not had the fortitude or the dr's help to fight this.

I know every person is different but I have suffered with random pain and PTSD for years and almost all have never been clearly DXed! Wonder if my ankolizing spondilities is aggravated by my PTSD?

Having trouble viewing your documents, but glad you received favorable results with the secondary conditions you listed. This gives hope to almost any condition diagnoses one might have with the relationship to PTSD diagnosis.
