Hi All - I'm writing from te VA medical center KC MO. I went on emergency sick call Sunday. My arm was hurging and my jaw ached. At the VA Med they gave me an EKG and lab work. No abnormablies. They gave me a nitro pill and the pain went away. I was admitted. Monday I had a caurterization. I was told my LAD, Right Cornary and another artey was 99%,89% and 85% blocked. I had surgery yesterday - three bi-passes.
I had a MI while on active duty in May 05 and stint. I have a claim in on that plus increase in PTSD. I have a C&P the 13th of June. Should I address the bi-passes at this time?
Is Heart diseases associated with PTSD or visa-versa? I am 59 and will be 60 in September. I'm presently at 60% total. PTSD, DMII, Tinitus, and skin. Would anyone have any idea if I may get a 100% rating. I'm a 26 year Army Retiree. I'm nogt concernd about UI. If they rate this because of PTSD I will be able to add this to my CRSC packet.
Any info you may offer is appreciated. THANKS VETS!!!
