Question
joe34al
Hello ,
New to the site, and see that there is some really good information. I received a copy of my C&P exam, and wanted to see if somebody could help me figure out what type of rating this would be. I know that there are a lot of factors involved, but anything would help me out.
1. Diagnosis
a. Does the Veteran now have or has ever been diagnosed with a mental disorder?
X Yes
Diagnosis #1: Panic disorder w/out agoraphobia
icd code: f 41.0
x Axis I
Diagnosis #2: Depressive disorder, nos
icd code: f 32.9
xAxis I
Axis IV - Trauma exposure, social isolation
Axis V - GAF 50
Occupational and Social Impairement - Occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity
For rating purposes check all syptoms that apply
Depressed mood
Anxiety
Panic Attacks that occur weekly or less often
Chronic sleep impairment
Mild memory loss, such as forgetting names, directions or recent events
Difficulty in establishing and maintaining effective work and social relationships
Difficulty in adapting to stressful circumstances, including work or a worklike setting
Does the Veteran have any other symptoms attributable to mental disorders that are not listed above?
X - yes - vet reports increasing ruminations about death.
Remarks: In my opinion it is more likely than not that vet continues to suffer from a panic disorder and secondary depression first manifest while on active duty. no periods of remission noted. vet also reports partial sxs of ptsd secondary to flight deck experiences, but does not meet full criteria for dx. highly likely, however, that these traumatic experiences contribute to current anxiety and panic.
Just wanted to get a sense on the rating. Thanks for the help!
