I highly recommend this consulting firm and I do not even have my decision yet. The Nexus letter I received was very well written. It made me realize how much information my doctor missed when he wrote his. While not his fault because that’s not something he does all the time. But, the Nexus was very well written! I would recommend them, regardless if I get approved or not.

I've used the VA for my healthcare for nearly 25 years but didn't find out until just last week that I should have filed a PTSD claim a long time ago for the issues I have resulting from my time in Beirut during the time of the Marine barracks bombing (spent five days digging through the rubble, looking for survivors and digging out bodies and body parts). Just watched your video and, wow, I have pretty much every single symptom you mentioned (except the weight gain problem). Wish I had this information a long time ago.

I recently won a claim for IBS secondary to anxiety and PTSD but was denied GERD for the same thing, with the VA rater citing that GERD is not a valid secondary condition to PTSD. I'm guessing that I can fight back and win this claim, because my mental rating includes anxiety, PTSD, and depression, but the rater cited only PTSD in the denial. There is documented medical studies linking anxiety to GERD, and the rater ignored mentioning this in the denial.

While I have your attention, please provide your thoughts about this concern concern😁 1) Around 2009, I was diagnosised and treated for PTSD prior to retiring from the military. 2)In 2010, I had a VA C&P exam for PTSD, but the VA C&P Doctor and VA Rater redesignated it to Major Depression and Generalized Anxiety Disorder at 30%. The doc and rater stated the stressor was missing in the rating decision. 3) After service, I've been treated by VA Mental Health from 2010 through now, but everyway VA psychologists and psychiatrists treated me for PTSD and Bipolar. The VA psychologist and psychiatrist treatmemt teams argued that my symptoms etc...aligned more with PTSD and Biploar. Here my challenge. 1) I am trying to submit for an increase on the 30% major depression and generalized anxiety, but my entire Mental Health trecord from 2010 to now shows treatment for PTSD and Bipolar. 2) Should I still submit as an increase for major depression and generalized anxiety disorder or submit for a new claim for PTSD and Bipolar? 3) My thoughts are the VBA considers all mental health conditions under mental health for rating purpose, therefore, it doesnt matter, but I could be wrong. What are your thoughts?

Yes, it could. PTSD, depression, anxiety, insomnia, somatic symptom disorder, adjustment disorder, etc. are ALL rated under the Mental schedule. You can get awarded 0% to 100% for each. However, you cannot , for example, combine any of those conditions to get to 100%. The best strategy is to get 100% P&T for one of those conditions since they are rated the same. Then pursue your secondary claims I hope this helps.

The C&P exam is part of the claims process. Receiving health care for hypertension is just part of the healthcare process.

Does anyone have a movement disorder from being in Iraq? I have 24 disorders that cause severe pain. The VA wants you to get intervention pain management, which one of my other doctors said don't do it and horror stories as why..

I have 70% PTSD, unfortunately you can not have 2 claims for mental disorder. They choose the greater of the 2. I've had anxiety through the VA at 50%. I went to get an increase and they switched it to ptsd and 70%. I asked them why I don't have both and that's when I found out they only allowed one mental disability. Hope this helps
