  1. Hi Ken & all... Like Ken, I'm in a very similar situation, having been diagnosed with CML about 9 years back. Since then, I've been on the roller coaster of high deductible healthcare plans, researching medication coverage for tier 4 chemo meds including mfg copay with funding caps, etc.. Recently, I picked up VA Healthcare when I had to leave my semi/retired full time employment status to reduce my income enough to get VA healthcare coverage. Sad, but true cycle of events. In parallel, I began researching the relationship of Trychloretholene (TCE), the actual mil spec PD-680 and Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) Apparently, there is a great deal of data on the topic of PD-680, TCE and Leukemia. I'm at the beginning stage - meeting with a VSO soon to begin the claim process. I am also aware of the fact that I can expect an initial denial, followed by the need to appeal. I've learned about numerous websites supporting Veterans such as Stateside Legal.com, Hadit.com, VAWatchdog.com, and others. All of that said, I am very interested in hearing for anyone who went through the VA Claim process with Leukemia related to "TCE". Thanks in advance. With great respect, MountainGuyz... (Bill)
