Ihd Ao Award

[Berta]

Someone at veteransinfo web site said they know of a vet who got AO IHD at 30% this week.

They said he had METS at 5 to 7 % and stents.

Another vet they know got letter asking for more info on his AO IHD claim.

This is good news.............but only one award we know of so far.

Berta,

This seems to moving after all those years of rejection. I r'cd Nehmer Letter 10-13-10 & had C & P + Echocardiogram on 10-25-10. On 11-3-10 r'cd test result for Echo from the PA did did my C & P.

"mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy..also apical hypokinesis with otherwise normal left ventricular wall motion. Left ventricular systolic function was low normal. The estimated ejection fraction was 50-55%."

This is from a claim filed 1-01 & denied at that time.

Any idea what all this means?

Thanks,

Don

Did you have a METS test?

I posted the ratings in new topic today that hopefully will give many some idea of what rating to expect.

No METS this time. Had one 2-09, 1-01 & in 1994.
