Gulf War Progress Ebennies!! Hmmm..

Rate this question

Question

Hi everyone,

Filled a claim for some gulf war related issues about 4 months ago.

My claim sat in the "under review" section for 3 months. Today, I see "prep for decision". 

Having been a long time fighter with the VA, this is the first time I have not been to a C&P exam. I'm a bit confused. Am I jumping to conclusion thinking it was all denied?

Any help would be appreciated!!!

It is really hard to say, but again I have helped a lot of Vets where their Conditions were granted SC without C&Ps. Plus remember that some conditions are easier to Medically Grant then others. Good luck and keep us posted

ahhh. I feel so nervous. It all pertained to gulf war stuff. Should be interested. The VA did admit that I was covered in the registry. But again, I was never given a C&P, but my file was under review for almost 3 months.

Were you denied before? If so did you submit new evidence? Just trying to see where this is going as far as not getting an exam.

hi. No I have not been denied before. I submitted just a little evidence, showed my deployments, and have registered under the burn pit registry.

Im currently 70% SC'd, with none of the new stuff related to my current rating, to include IBS.

Did you keep a copy of the exam?  My was a joke at the OK VAMC, I did it, however, I never received any conclusive results and the doctor was not very thorough.  Personally the Burn Pit Registry and Airborne Hazard Survey asked more concise and specific questions than the medical exam from the doc.

I have not had an exam. I just did the registry online.
