Question
OldDave
I'm new to this so please excuse my errors. I'm a 62 yr old Vietnam vet who just learned that the diabetes I was diagnosed with in the late 1980's is service connected. In 1998 I had a heart attack. I'm trying to make the connection that the heart disease is secondary to DMII. I applied in July and at the beginning of August received the letter from the VARO with the form I needed to sign and return requesting an additional 30 days to submit evidance. That is not enough time to get the medical opinons I will need to prove my case. I plan to submit my own argument along with data from the internet before the 30 days are up. When I am denied, I'll get the medical data I need and file an appeal. That will give me up to a year. Does this make sense to anyone?
