BVA–STICK WITH YOUR STORY


This is short and sweet. The VET has Hep. He doesn’t know where it came from. More importantly, he knows where it didn’t come from. He states the risk factors, discounts the drug connection which he can , as a layperson, opine about. The VA examiner is unable to make an educated guess. Result? It is at least as likely than not that it was something in service. Simple. Do not feel obligated to help VA figure out a reason. Always remember. You are not a doctor. What do you know about it? Very little. They always choose the reason least likely to help you anyway.
