Hi Broncovet. I see you are a regular here; thanks for responding. I was in Nam ,'70-71 ,and supposedly high blood pressure is on the short list to be added for presumptives for A.O. and i was just trying to get ahead of the curve. I have been on b/p meds so long that I don't have any recent readings that will be considered high enough to be rated. It is under control when I take my meds and I sure don't want to stop taking them for a day or two just to go and get it checked at the VA. I am rated for IHD, or coronary heart disease, but I would like the rating for high blood pressure, even if it would be 0% now. I was hoping someone might know what is needed, or how far back can you go to show what it was before meds. If anyone has gone thru it, I'd be interested in knowing.
