How Many Vets Have Appeals For Intestinal Diseases?

[retiredat44]

how many vets have appeals for intestinal diseases? May I ask have/had intestinal diseases. Are they diagnosed with actual diseases, or symtptoms and no name?

If so, how long has it been since you were denied, and in appeals for those? past and ongoing treatment?

were you diagnosed with any intestinal symptoms/diseases while on active duty?

Anything else to say about cause, effect, status.

where (what part of the world or where in the USA did these happen? Inclduing the claim and appeal, and status?

I am very curious, as I have an appeal for intestinal disease and had problems diagnosed on active duty, but since then the symptoms got much worse with time..

7 months since my dro hearing...

Thank you for listening..

My appeal goes back to my in service hospitalization for my stomach conditions. VA denied my claim then low balled my claim twice and now my claim is pending at BVA.

Unfortunately, some of us are suffering from chronic stomach/intestinal disorders and due to our other medical problems and medications the conditions of stomach problems are not going away. I was diagnosed with chronic stomach problems, gastroenteritis, and gastro intestinal disorder while on active duty.

The real questions are: Were you diagnosed with a stomach condition while on active service? Do you have a current stomach condition/disorder? Also keep in mind that VA will try to fight this claim especially if it warrants any type of retro pay.
