I injured myself in 92 during monthly ANG training. Went to the clinic on base and got checked out...still have a copy of the original medical paperwork. The injury has progressively worsened over the years to the point it makes it hard to function normally during the day now. I've seen a VA advisor or adovocate...whatever they're called, and we filed an intent to file a claim. He asked me for an "LoD". I had no idea what that was but apparently it's a "Line of Duty" report. I don't have that, wasn't given that, never told prior to this that I needed that. All I have is the original paperwork from the original trip to the clinic.

So, he tells me I need a diagnosis so this can be related to the original injury. I've started with my family practice doctor who ordered an MRI. MRI shows results of old injury. Have an appt with a specialist mid-Nov.

Any advice from you guys that may have been thru this before? Am I going about this the right way?
