I filed for Cubital Tunnel syndrome and I was denied for Carpal Tunnel. Not what I filed for! Do I need to appeal or reapply? When I was AD USAF I had an issue with my left hand and they xrayed it and did not diagnose me with cubital tunnel, just said hand was deformed in 1993. The VA also misdagnosed it in 2016. It is definitely a misdiagnosed symptom of cubital tunnel that I am now diagnosed with by the VA. I am currently awaiting my call to get my surgery scheduled. I appreciate all your thoughts!
