Just a quick note to say I am going nuts! C and P exam said as likely as not the condition was secondary to my knee condition. Apparently they actually call it secondary to the pain. It is a stress/anxiety disorder. The C and P Doctor states in her report the exact wording listed under the 30% disability definition. It went to the rating board once and was pulled back because they were looking to see if the pain was worse over all (or so I am told by the folks at the 1-800 number. It went back to the rating board on 3 March and I am going nuts waiting on this decision. A serious question though Just a few days ago I got a letter asking if I still wanted to pursue a video conferance on my appeak I of course said yes. However I have been told a thousand times the VA handles one case at a time. So my question is If they have now inquired as to my hearing decision. This should mean they have finished with my stress claim. How long does it take from the time the rating board renders a decision to get it through review and typing and recieving the big brown envelope. I know this may be in the wrong post but I never saw a forum to put this in. I apologize if I missed the correct forum. O am holping somebody can estimate how long before I get the news either bad or good. Also I must have been misinformed as I thought the VA did not rate pain.
