Hello all. This is an update on my progress.
10/23- Review of PTSD C&P Exam
10/31 - Lower Back C&P Exam
11/19 - Claim Submitted FDC on EBenny (all DBQs, Med Records, Forms,and Sworn Declarations uploaded)
11/23 - "Gathering Evidence" Status
12/1 - Spoke to RO and VA had submitted a 'medical opinon request from outside dr"
12/3 - Received call from "Veterans Evaluation Services" in MN stating the VA is requesting a local medical provider to conduct the same 2 C&P Exams!!!
Has this happening to anyone else? Could it be good or bad news?
I filed for Depression secondary to IVDS, Bilateral Radiculapathy of lower extremities secondary to IVDS, IU, and increase in PTSD.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
~Mo~

Hey Mo, Keep in mind that the VA weighs the value of medical opinions differently based on the medical expertise of the "medical professional". From lowest to highest weight (I might be missing a few)
