Question
D_Sizzle
Good day,
Bit of a background.....I retired from the AF last September. I was awarded 80% with sleep apnea, hypertension, and a slew of other ailments. I was recently diagnosed with Type II diabetes and filed a claim. I am still within my 1 year window of retiremnt. I just checked the EBenefits website to check the status and it says my attention is needed and the following comments:
We need evidence showing that the following condition(s) existed from military service to the presen...t time:
extreme burning and numbness in bilateral fee, diabetes mellitus type II
7/6/20118/6/2011Please submit medical evidence on your current disability as well a...s evidence showing a connection between your disability and your service connected condition. We will consider service connection for your as secondary to your service connected condition. Note: Temporary or intermittent flare ups of a condition are not considered aggravation, unless the underlying condition, as contrasted by symptoms, has gotten worse.
Any idea what I should do at this point?
Thanks,
Dave
