Hi Berta,
I'm hoping you can answer this confusing question for me. Regarding SMC-K, for a woman who is service connected for total hysterectomy and bilateral mastectomy, how would they compute it? The language in Section 38 reads for each loss or loss of use so would she receive 3 Ks for the reproductive organs? Also, would it be 1 K for each breast totaling 2 Ks? Thank you in advance for your time and much-appreciated help!

This is a good veteran law firm and they say it is possible to get more than one K award- they also have an online lawyer at the site who might clarify if you can:
