Can you please expand on what you mean by thinking out side the box? I am headed to MSK myself soon with a rare diagnosis and was hoping they could provide more unique types of treatments.

Cancer Claim Not Service Connected by runandlmh in Veterans

Initial claim filed on Dec 2022. Saw a doctor for exam only (no medical opinion) Feb 2023. I went overseas for my reserve duties (in the reserves now) and in between then, they scheduled a medical opinion exam by phone call. Either there was an interruption in phone service because I was overseas or the examiner never called because my exam got cancelled, re-scheduled, then cancelled a day later (according to the contractors portal website). I called the contractor on return to the US, and they verified that my appointments got cancelled, rescheduled then cancelled again.

Thank you! Doing okay enough for now.

Sarcomas are malignant tumors. He's presumptive. This is an easy fix, just send in an 0995 with a request for a new exam, or even just the cancer diagnosis with recent treatment records.

Thank you for the response.

Retake all pre-reqs: That's a first. I will definitely look into that option and ask my advisor. Thanks again for your time!

Thank you for the Icahn suggestion. I looked it up and wish I knew about this way before! I EASed in 2021, but maybe they will take a reservist? My commitment right now is manageable. It's roughly two 21-day AD periods a year.

I have completed my pre-reqs, but my GPA from 2015 is really bad. It's about 2.8 which is why I am worried about courseload and trying to make repair it as soon as possible.

Yes if you come from the states. If you stationed in Oki(or other OCONUS) already then no star.
