PTSD/MST no C&P exam

[FacingOdds]

Hello, I'm new here but have read through many posts. I put in several claims for increase & a new one for PTSD due to MST. I've had exams for everything but the PTSD. When I contacted the VA to inquire if I would be scheduled for one. They stated that reviewing chart records & other evidence no exam was needed. Has anyone had a good outcome without a C&P exam for PTSD? I'm currently at 50% for MDD & anxiety. However, recently VA doctors have said it's a misdiagnosis & changed it to PTSD. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks

That is great they are not in need of an exam.   Those exams can suck as they bring up a lot.  

I have had a good outcome without a C&P exam.  But again you never know who you are going to get.  Hope for the best, but be prepared to fight it all the way.  

Just have to wait it out and see what they come up with.

Thank you so much for the response! I was very nervous and causing myself more anxiety even thinking about having to go through an exam for that portion. I'll just hope for the best outcome, the great thing is I'm on the right track with seeing someone about my mental state. Thank you again.
