After all these years, I was told about applying for C&P in Nov. 2005. Placed on SSDI last year, now I am just beginning to start the C&P process. An MI in 1987 landed me in the VAMC, then also informed of DMII, Hypertension, CAD, among others. In 1993, the VA dr. said I was no longer eligible for ongoing care for DMII and related neuro syptoms. Like a "good little soldier", I said ok, and no longer went to VAMC for care. I re-entered to VA system after being declared disabled by my IMO and then later by SSDI, hoping I might be able to get care and the rather large load of prescriptions. Of course, even though put in Catagory 5, I am paying copays for everything, including office visits and some tests. I did not apply for benefits until Nov. 2005. Service connection for DMII is a certainty, but will I be able to recover the thousands spent during 2005? Just one of several questions I will be needing help form you that have/are going through the process.
