Question
FaithIsAChoice
Hello Everyone:
I found this site a few months ago and have been reading. I finally bit the bullet to sign on.
I would like to ask @Berta and @broncovet if VARO from the VA Regional Office could give medical opinions in the decision letters?
I received a decision letter that specifically stated, "The Veteran's private medical records from Dr. (name) shows a diagnosis of (disability) dated (date) "Therefore, it is the opinion of this reviewer that the Veterans (disability) is less likely than not (less than 50% probability) incurred in or caused by the injury or complaints during the service."
The nexus from the Dr. was more than likely.
Please I would appreciate any help with understanding this from the VARO stating the medical opinion.
Thank you in advance!

I think the decision listed the LOD as Evidence, but did not consider it at all. If the LOD fully reveals in the in service nexus ( injury etc)-they should have considered it....if it was relevan
