Buzz,

Since your METS score is over 7 and if you are on medication I think you will be rated at 10%. Please refer to the rating schedules for more detailed info. Go to the code of federal regulations and refer to 38 CFR 4.

Buzz, did the report say the left ventricle was enlarged?

If it was then the rating will be 30 as the Mets do not count as the EF of 55 trumps mets.

Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with.

concentric hypertrophy

Thats it. Hypertrophy means enlarged so it should be 30 percent.

Keep us posted.

They will rate the most severe. Both would be pyramiding.
