I’m new here. I was with the 9 Med Battalion C company in Vietnam in 1967 . I have found older posts on Myasthenia. Thought if I started a new one it might get more attention. Most Myasthenia claims seem to be denied. I and others have found a few that have been granted. Wondering why some would and some would not. These are a couple I’ve found. They appear to have bee filed well after the one year requirement for Myasthenia Gravis. 1.

I see this post is a couple years old but I’ve been researching this recently. A couple of things I’ve found that you have probably seen. These are exerts from length VA documents. 1.
