Hopefully this is not a silly question but if so please entertain me. I have an SCD rating of 10% as of this moment and when I filed the claim and was awarded it I had done it all on my own with no help or guidance. I didn't know that I could file a claim for my knees causing me issues or carpal tunnel (call it ignorance on my part) but after talking to a gentleman last week at work that helps guide Vets on their claims he said now that I have a 10% SCD it will be difficult to get anything else as I should have claimed all of my ailments in the beginning. Claiming everything at once makes since but I obviously didn't know that. Now comes my question. So is it or will it be worth trying to move forward with a claim for the two conditions I just mentioned? Lastly for whatever reason the VA last time the looked could not find my medical record, so what do I need to do to prove I have these issues?
Thank you for any guidance you can provide.

Listen to GBArmy the man who told you that BS is out to lunch on Vets Claims. To be fair, there are lots of myths out there about claims and in fact properly preparing claims can be daunting. The

YES, getting my medical records and being able to prove I was seen for some of those conditions is what won me some of those ratings. I don't think the raters at the RO would have caught them, I ha
