  Hi Leah, thanks for creating these videos. Can you create a video if tinnitus, migraines and neck pain can be secondary to TMJ? Also, can you clarify if the primary VA doctor puts SCT or ICD codes in the VA medical record, can that be considered a diagnosis? Thank you in advance and keep up the great work!!!

  I got a DBQ and IMO from Prestige trying to get my migraines secondary to tinnitus. My VA neurologist said there isn't a connection and my C&P examiner said there is no evidence that tinnitus causes migraines. When my examiner told me that I knew I wouldn't get rated.

  Former infantry. Diagnosed and medically discharged for Sinus Tarsi Syndrome L ankle, in 1994. Documented antalgic gait while in service and ever since. Obtained a Nexus letter from a Doctor to secondary connected my diagnosed Rt ankle traumatic arthritis, bilat knee arthritis, pain and instability, bilat hip osteorarthritis and lower back arthritis. Two years in and they just connected the lower back, but have denied the knees and hips twice now. I also have in service documentation on discharge of PFPS on one exam, then five days later it says, "Not currently". They have also increased my back from 10% to 20%, yet sent me a letter saying they are reducing my overall rating because the back shows improvement. Even though the same letter says my last exam showed worsening of symptoms. The VA sucks.

  Not really related but I had a therapy session with a psychologist back in 2021 and I disclosed that I was adopted when I was younger and had bad grades in school. From 2022-present I’ve been dealing with mentally taxing depression and anxiety that stemmed from a few in-service events. I’ve sought out mental therapy for almost three years now, have been checked in to the psych-ward, and am currently doing out-patient therapy (all in Service treatment records, along with ICD diagnosis). My question would be, am I screwed in my Mental Health claim because I disclosed my adoption during my childhood and also stated that I felt bad for a few months? Current diagnosis of MDD, GAD, and Adjustment Disorder within the past 12-months. Currently on active duty and will be utility BDD in 3-months. Thanks in advance
