Today I went for my PTSD C&P, the overall exam went well I felt, the examiner spent about 1.5 hours speaking with me which is more time than I had expected. At the end the examiner had me go into an empty conference room and fill out a MMPI-2-RF on pen and paper, I was not prepared to take a written test, as I had mostly read that these exams are speaking with another person, but all in all it wasn't horrible. My questions are, is this common practice to give an MMPI for PTSD? All I can find on the internet is that this test is used to diagnose other mental disorders and not PTSD although it can be used to diagnose anxiety and depression which I am also claiming. Also, the examiner didn't make clear which claim he was assessing for, I was under the assumption that there would be different C&P's for each claim? Or do they group all the mental disorders into one C&P? Thanks for your guys help!
Oh also, the examiner stated I could see his findings in about two weeks online, does anybody know where I would find this?

If you have MyhealthyVet you can wait 3 days and the VA notes should be in it. (your C&P) I'am not sure why he mention two weeks? unless this was contracted out from the VA? ......
