This is my first post although I monitor the forums frequently and have gleaned much valuable infomation. Thanks to all who help! I am a Air Force, Rvn Vet 66 -67, Tan Son Nhut, Tay Ninh and other locations. With the advent of the new AO presumptives I filed in Nov for IHD, CAB 94 and recent Thallium Stress, 39% LVEF and already had my C&P for same with Dx of IHD. (should be rated at 60%) Also filed for PTSD after 43 years, had my C&P and was Dx with PTSD by examiner, did not ask the GAF score. Am now waiting for rating on IHD pending final rule. Have inquired via IRIS on my PTSD claim status no response yet. My question revolves around other conditions I have that are diagnosed by private doctors and results of tests etc. that I will file for after I get my hearback on the two conditions I have noted. I need suggestions as to what direction to take Secondary, P&T etc. am trying to stay away from nexus letters as much as possible, but will solicit "likely as not" letters if needed.
Mitral Valve Regurtation - Dx - 94 Secondary to IHD?
Aterial Fibulation - Dx - 97 Secondary to IHD?
Digenerative Disc Disease C-5-7 Dx 09 NSC
Hernated Disc NSC
Total Hip replacement L&R done 2007
Need R knee replaced Dx 2007
Nephrectomy L Kidney done 2007 (Renal Cell Carcenoma) Not presumptive but found 5 appellate cases awarded AO associated.
Three incisional hernia repairs secondary to nephrectomy 2007 - 2009
Multiple Lipomas - 1967 to present, found three appellate cases awarded AO associated
Anxeity - Secondary to PTSD?
Depression - Secondary to PTSD & IHD
ED - Secondary to PTSD & IHD ?
Any help in sorting this out would be appreciated. Thank You in advance.
