go to your therapist and ask for a suggestion on who to contact regarding this claim, I went to NYLAG, this is a bunch of lawyers.....really good lawyers that will represent you regarding your claim, they will work with you and be there for you every step along the way... 30 years, no voice, no proof, I just received my claim back for this and was awarded 70% best of luck to you and never give up.

The link explains how to file a claim for MST but that has resources if you need to talk to someone ASAP.
