I have have been diagnosed with trichinellosis and I am not sure how to go about starting a claim for this?
I will try to keep it as simple as possible but this is a very complex condition. It is a food born parasite that is mostly found overseas and is very rare in the US. I have all the symptoms to include joint pain, muscle weakness, cardiac complaints, lung involvement, skin irritation, and neurological issues. I have filed for most of the issues I describe but I am not sure if I should file something else. I looked into the GWI issue to see if I should file for that, but I think this is complicated by the fact that that rating is set up for something that does not have a known cause. I have all the symptoms but I have a confirmed diagnosis. Any help would be great. There is a lot more to this so if anyone has any interest I can provide more info. To understand this parasite it is best to google it.
