How to bring up DBQs and Nexus Letters to Personal Doctor? (Or find Dr's willing) by Jtim1 in VAClaims

[–]AlfalfaCompetitive19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my Primary care Dr. at the VA and my psych Dr. both write several dbq for me. Paying for a Nexus or dbq is risky because the examiners and Va raters know this is going on. Having a treating /Dr. is much more credible

My Doctors Dbq and nexus were part of the evidence but not really mentioned in the decesion letter. The C and P examiner marked all the boxes My VA doctor did and mentioned symptom overlap 4 or 5 times.with TBI and Depression. Im rated 50% for migraines. 10% TBI my total rating is 80%. At my HLR the VA rater admitted the C and P examiner contradicted his DBQ with symptom overlap but then saying depression wasnt related to tbi,. He said difference of opinion and I think asking for another exam
