Have you considered seeing a neurologist specializing in Parkinson that accepts Medicare? It will help your VA claim to have a doc's diagnosis outside VA system. It will help your claim if you are receiving Rx meds for the Parkinson. Get copies of all these medical records to file with your claim. Also, do you have VFW or other service organization rep. fighting for you?

I should try that. I only recently moved to Daytona Beach so I don't have a Neurologist like I had in California. I cannot reach the one I had in California as he had retired a few years ago. I may try t get an opinion from him. I do have a VSO who has been fighting for me, my claims are denied for the tremors being caused by agent orange, but we had not yet considered trying to link the combination of having has polio with the exposure.
