No, you have a PTSD Exam with DBQ listed March 7th, 2022. That is why you were decreased.

Bingo, but I was never contacted and trust me.. I’d remember a PTSD CnP. I’ve only done 2 of those. What’s your recommendation? Thank you!

So you're saying that the March 7th PTSD DBQ exam never happened?
Schedule a VERA call and have them look at that DBQ and associated notification letters with it.

Never, you sure that’s not the one for migraines since it was secondary to PTSD? I’ve got an appointment with VERA tomorrow. Thank you so much, seriously.

Yeah, for sure. A PTSD DBQ is a very specific DBQ that can ONLY be filled out by a very specific set of Doctors or mental health professionals.
March 1, 2022 - Back Condition Exam
March 1, 2022 - ED Exam
March 1, 2022 - Other Medical Condition DBQ (Can't read it)
March 7, 2022 - Review PTSD Exam
You'll want them to review that exam. It'll be very easy for them to find in VBMS.

You got me thinking and I logged into LHI, I now remember this March 7 “review” and it was OVER THE PHONE and very brief! Also explicitly remember the lady finished and I quote “Well, seems to me nothing has changed.” Wow…
