Question
show7299
Hey everyone. So I just had my exam for PTSD. I am currently rated at 30% for anxiety disorder with alchohol abuse with elements of PTSD. I was rated this back in 2009 and since my symptoms have worsened. My doctor told me a long time ago to file an appeal because he diagnosed me with PTSD the first time I met him. Anyways years later and things worse I finally filed. I should mention I do have a CIB and BSM. I was kind of shocked at my appointment. First i didnt sleep for days leading up to it thinking about everything I was going to have to talk about. Then I got there and he didnt really have me talk about Iraq at all. It was weird. Anyways my doc looked at my exam in the computer (hes a nice guy) and he said based on what he sees I should be rated at 70 but could be 50. It was a PTSD diagnoses with severe depression and anxiety. I was given a GAF of 50 which im never above 48 according to my doctor. He checked the box that would indicate 70% just the one below 100% where it gives the description. What do you think I should expect. The GAF at 50 kinda scares me. Thanks
