Question
jmccoy08800
So, here's the thing. I got off active duty in 2012 after 6 years of AD. Since 2012, I was granted 40% for my dual knee replacement after getting injured in combat. Since I was only granted 40%, I had continuously submitted for PTSD disability as I'm treated for it and have been for 2 years now through a non VA psychiatrist. I've had numerous sessions within VA Mental Health regarding my mental state, issues, etc.
Now, about 2 weeks (Nov 2016), I submitted another claim after being denied about 6 times since 2012. I gave as much detailed information as possible. My symptoms, issues, etc.
This is the weird part. I've never seen such a quick turnaround. The claim is already in the "Preparation for Decision" phase, with an estimated completion of Feb 2017. Could anyone elaborate on why all of a sudden the process is much quicker? I haven't received any appointment to have an evaluation and I'm just stunned. Does this have anything to do with Trump making changes to the VA? Any input would be much appreciated.
Thanks brothers!!

jmccoy08800 If you don't have a VA Diagnose for DSM-5 PTSD then you will likely be denied for that reason. Its good you see VA MH for your treatment ...you also need the VA Dx and a nexus .

How about getting all your PTSD C & P DBQs, including the most recent, redact and post them so we can get a grip on your situation? Posting redacted copies of your "Numerous PTSD Denial" letters w

Yes that is going around the internet. Her son, she claims, has PTSD and is an Iraq vet, but many say on the net that he saw no combat. He apparently had a serious domestic violence incide
