I am trying to figure out something based on some claims I submitted this past summer. I submitted a claim for TBI, exclusively. I didn't submit anything for migraine headaches which have unfortunately been so incapacitating that I had to leave my previous post with the VA. I just assumed migraines were associated with TBI and put in a claim for that. I was never diagnosed in the military as having TBI as those instances surrounding TBI were nothing more than wake up, shake it off, and move out. I have had migraines since but never really as bas as they are now. Here is my question: considering I did not submit a claim for migraines, is it possible that will be rated individually or in conjunction with TBI? Also, considering I didn't submit a claim for migraines, is it possible that won't be evaluated at all? I'm curious to see if the VA will end up rating that individually even though I didn't submit a claim. I'm sorry if this post didn't make any sense or if I lost anyone. I have a hard type relaying what's in my head to the computer screen...the words just get kind of clogged up somewhere. Thanks for your help.

Hello all,
I am trying to figure out something based on some claims I submitted this past summer. I submitted a claim for TBI, exclusively. I didn't submit anything for migraine headaches which have unfortunately been so incapacitating that I had to leave my previous post with the VA. I just assumed migraines were associated with TBI and put in a claim for that. I was never diagnosed in the military as having TBI as those instances surrounding TBI were nothing more than wake up, shake it off, and move out. I have had migraines since but never really as bas as they are now. Here is my question: considering I did not submit a claim for migraines, is it possible that will be rated individually or in conjunction with TBI? Also, considering I didn't submit a claim for migraines, is it possible that won't be evaluated at all? I'm curious to see if the VA will end up rating that individually even though I didn't submit a claim. I'm sorry if this post didn't make any sense or if I lost anyone.
