ptsd 53 Day Decision On Claim?

[combatcamera]

I recently made a claim for a number of different diseases including chronic bronchitis, hip pain due to them being crooked, PTSD with which I was formally diagnosed and am currently on medication for and a number of other things that I have proof for... It only took the rating board 53 days to come to a decision and now I am in the Notification Phase, is this bad? Does this mean instant denial?

I wouldn't read anything into it. Some RO's are super fast and others are slower than time. Which RO are you with?

Don't worry the VA is trying to speed up claims. Without knowing results form your C&P, Medical History and nexus to service no one can hazard a guess.

Good Luck

I am with the Charleston VA named after Ralph H. Johnson. I am super nervous about this and I'm getting ready to leave for school and my newborn baby will be staying with family for a while and I don't know what's going to happen with all this. I keep reading people's posts about it taking almost years for this decision to be made and I'm worried that I may hit a brick wall. One more question, do they alway low ball people at first? And how can you find out the results of your C&P's?

My RO is in Nebraska and is not nearly as overworked at the ones in Houston or St. Pete. Ive had 30-40 day decisions before. Now im on appeal, though, so we'll see.

Hang in there Brother as it should be OK. I have seen lightning strike before.

I have seen claims as fast as 10 days. Deinal for Character of service. I have witnessed approvals in 30 days also.
