Question

I was looking through my military medical records that where supplied by the VA and I noticed that Raynaud's Phenomenon isn't listed anywhere in my medical records. I do however still have a copy of my profile from my Rheumatologist that stated that I have Raynaud's Phenomenon and should be able to wear cold weather gear whenever I needed especially gloves etc. In my med board/c&p exam Raynauds is also on there. I wasn't awarded anything for it and the C&P exam states that the condition is in remission. The same thing is said for my carpal tunnel in my left and right hands. I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel and it is in my medical records. When I received my award letter the carpal tunnel is listed as not service connected but Raynaud's isn't listed on there at all.

I went to a PCM today and showed him my fingers and he prescribed me some medication for blood flow that would help me deal with the Raynaud's. In the literature he printed out there isn't necessarily a test for it. I am about to start my real fight for 100% I have only been out of active duty for 4 1/2 months so it is critical now to try and get service connected. Also looking through my medical records I see that Depression/adjustment disorder showed up in 2009. I recently started seeing mental health and I'm being treated for MDD moderate, single according to my healthevet problem codes. Are single instances of evidence strong enough in regards to the Raynauds documented on my profile? I'm not sure why they don't put profiles into the medical records seems dumb to not do that.

    All VA Claims questions should be posted on our forums. To post, you must register. Registration is free. You can register for a free account here.

     

    You can read the forums without registering.

     

    Tips on posting on the forums.
     

    1. Post a clear title like ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of ‘I have a question.
    2. Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title. I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on.
    3. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story. Again – You want to make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.

     

    Leading to:

     

    Post straightforward questions and then post background information.

     

    Examples:
     
    • A. I was previously denied for apnea – Should I refile a claim?
      • Adding Background information in your post will help members understand what information you are looking for so they can assist you in finding it.
    • I was diagnosed with apnea in service and received a CPAP machine, but the claim was denied in 2008. Should I refile?
       
    • B. I may have PTSD- how can I be sure?
      • See how the details below give us a better understanding of what you’re claiming.
        • I was involved in a traumatic incident on base in 1974 and have had nightmares ever since, but I did not go to mental health while enlisted. How can I get help?

     

    This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial from your claim?” etc.

     

    Note:

     

    • Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed.
    • This process does not take long.
    • Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. The review requirement will usually be removed by the 6th post. However, we reserve the right to keep anyone on moderator preview.
