Some suggestions:

1. Research what you are submitting, here at  HADIT, Google. Submit as many backing documents as you can especially tying  in  secondary conditions
2. Write a well personal statement ( Describing the issue)
3. Have your spouse/or someone familiar with the issue write a statement  
4. Get a good Nexus letter from a Doctor you trust this is the format I used (https://militarydisabilitymadeeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/NEXUS-letter-sample.pdf)
5. Get copies of all medical records and submit copies ( Don't be afraid to highlight parts of the records that my pertain to your issue)
6. Do Not be afraid to ask for help may great veterans here at HADIT are willing to help you along your journey to get what you deserve. Also many local VA  centers have support staff to ask questions and guide you along your journey
7. Do Not Give up!!  Many Successful stories here

VINDICATION. 

After I won my 100% scheduler, it was more than a victory it was vindication that I knew I should had been rated higher. At first, I felt numb, it had to set in that I would never work again but I got through it by trying my best to help other veterans.

Congratulatons on your Award   WAY TO GO

GOOD TO SEE THIS.

As for as no C&P Exam   when a Veteran has all this in his medical records  VA OR PRIVATE  that proves his clai, in my opinion  no C&P Exam needed and really a waist of everyone time. (jmo)
