Question

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?

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-filesmile.png

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.
