Question
Robbi314
I am sure the answer to this has already been posted somewhere on this forum, but I have been unable to find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My husband was granted 100% P&T for his disabilities(the majority is for PTSD)back in 2007. They went back to 2005 with his award. On Friday we received a letter from the VA in Auburn,WA,(we are in Florida)stating that he was identified as a potential Nehmer class member. He has been treated by the VA for severe hypertension, high cholesterol, triglycerides,etc.as well as skin and mouth cancer since back in the 80's. He was never granted disability for these conditions but was rated at 20, then later 40% for cervical and knee injuries.( He was Airborne) I also noticed, when going through some old records we originally applied for and were denied disability for PTSD along with his other heart related issues back in 2003. I'm not sure quite what to do about this, if anything at all, however they should have gone back to '03 on the PTSD I do believe. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
