joluby Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Just received my rating of 30% for CAD associated with AO and was told that my 'vericose veins' could be a secondary claim. Has anyone found this to be the case and if so where can I find info the link the two together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP4RVN1971 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Thanks for the feedback I picked up my C&P file from the VA today and the nurse who conducted the interview wrote that my vericose veins were not related to my CAD. Not surprised! I guess I could get an opion from an outside source just to be sure that its not connected. I just found it strange that it happened after i received my stent and started taking the meds on a daily basis. I had great success with outside doctors. My primary outside doctor's letter's were very helpful in getting my condition's. Also VES Veterans Evalation Services test was also helpful. So re-file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joluby Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Thanks I'll look into the VTS and check with a cardiologist outside the VA system to see if I should move forward. If its not connected I'm ok with that but if it is I'm willing to file again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
