Nexus letter for Lupus SLE

[Callahsr]

I am trying to get a Nexus letter for SC for SLE. My Rheumatologist does not do them. I was looking at the Ellis Clinic but can't travel to Oklahoma. Does anyone know a Dr who does Nexus letters just by doing a medical record review?

Not all Vets have 5k in the bank to afford a flight to OKC, and an exam..sure it may be less, but it might as well be a million dollars if you dont have it.  

There are docs and attorneys who help deserving Vets get the benefits they deserve and dont require they have a bankroll to pay for all this stuff up front.  

My old attorney, Glover Luck upfronted an IMO, and deducted the proceeds out of my retro.  I understand Hill and Pontoon does the same.  Dr. Anise is a lawyer and a doctor, so he may look at your case and decided to upfront an IMO if he thinks your case has merit.  

I was near homeless when I applied for benefits, and, of course, VA made sure they delayed my benefits at least 3 years virtually guaranteeing I lost my home.  (no income.)  

Its their plan.  Make the Vet think he will get benefits in 90 days or less, deny him 80 percent of the time, then put him in a 5 year appeal que, hoping the Veteran will commit suicide before he ever gets them.  It works far too often.  

Solutions are not readily available, and very difficult to find.  They did not know how persistent I am...still fighting them for benefits 17 years after I applied.  They thought surely I would commit suicide first.    Sadly, many Vets do just that.  Persistence works when other stuff does not.
