Does anyone have referenes or experience in getting vascular disease of the lower limbs service connected as secondary to DM II?
Veteran is s/c for DMII and PN with loss of use of one of the lower extremity ( 2 K awards one for loss and the other for ED),and also s/c for IHD. But recent claim for DVT (blood clot and infection in lower leg secondary to DMII ,VA has denied stating the leg condition is not related to the DMII.
Might the veteran get the DVT (clot and or infection)s/c as secondary to IHD?
