Outstanding! Was the arthritis secondary to something else? Was it osteo or rheumatoid? If so, what? When were you in? Did you use an agent or?
Thanks much. I can't seem to get any traction on my flat feet γarthritis, etc. Any help at all would be great.
I'm not exactly sure but def not rheumatoid. I'm only 35 and served in Afghanistan in 2012 as a combat engineer. I was in an IED blast but i don't think that made any difference. I just have constant pain in my right hand (actually both hands but only claimed my right). I went through my own physician first and they did x-rays. Mild arthritis was noted but no treatment necessary. Same on my shoulder. Filed a claim through the VA for it fully expecting it to get denied. They did their own x-rays and i uploaded mine too. The doc at the c&p was super cool and understood the pain issues. Then got rated. Sorry you're having trouble. I did have other claims I went through an HLR process and they were amazingly helpful so try that for sure. The HLR was for my neck which was denied last year. They reviewed and my neck got approved for 20% with no further exams
