OEF 21B Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Excellent article Berta! It still chaps me a bit that the VA examiner said that I have many PTSD symptoms but in his opinion, didn't warrant a "full" diagnosis of PTSD, even though I have a PTSD diagnosis from a MD Psychiatrist.

Berta, Excellent article! Thank you for making it all easy to understand. When the new PTSD regs came into effect I had concerns that they stipulated there must be a VA diagnosis. The fact that medical diagnoses outside of the VA are being ignored is very disturbing. CHR49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stillhere Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I agree I hope they win and the reason why is because I believe that if a doctor has a licence to practice in his field then his/her DX should be applied with as much weight if not more as a VA doctor. The other thing like many vets I just do not trust the fox at the chicken coop!! What I mean is with the VA paying our comp based soely on what their doctors say! There really is a clear indication that bias would be occuring! Just my opinion! I have heart disease but I will not let the VA docs touch my heart!!
