diabetes Remanded Again

[Philip Rogers]

I just received another BVA remand on my 1999 SMC "s" award claim, for HB/A&A, inferred issue, back to 1989. This is getting to be fun! You'd think I'd be tired of it but I'm not. This gives me time to add an IMO, if I can find a physician or shrink that can give me a possitive IMO. In the remand decision I discovered I was granted s/c, for nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy of the right eye, effective 9/8/10, considered a complication of diabetes mellitus, but was never notified of the decision. Here we go again (or some more)!

God bless you for not giving up. You give me inspiration to keep going...

That is great Philip!

Whatever a remand calls for -to me-is what the vet needs to pursue as well.

Persistence and evidence equal Victory!

Sounds good to me - a remand over a denial and can submit additional evidence :-)

Might turn out to be some fantastic retro over more than a decade !

Is the retinopathy at a compensable level either past or current ?

Carlie - I don't think so. Just before they awarded it the eye exam I had says I don't have it. I still haven't received the notice awarding it. The remand is dwelling on whether my SC PTSD keeps/kept me from leaving the home specifically to earn an income. Based on that I should win and if I do it should be back to '89. Should know in about 4-5 more yrs. jmo
