A lot of claims that I have had have been put on hold at stage 2 for additional info, or denied at stage 2. I have a P&S at stage 3.1, it was for an injury that was at the gym so I was not entirely sure that VAC would consider that related to service. Anyway, if they did not believe it was related to service would I be refused at stage 2?
I tore my ACL and LCL and had my ACL surgically repaired. Later on, I had a bone graft taken from my R Knee which caused my R knee to act up. The bone graft was from a service related injury that I have entitlement for. My application was primarily for that the bone graft aggravated my R knee and I have daily pain. They have relabeled my claim as "Internal Derangement Knee". When I look that up it shows that it is usually due to a torn ligament. I never put the claim in for my ACL/LCL.
Thank you
