Moderator broncovet Posted August 13, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 13, 2013 You described the diagnosis. Veterans disability, in most cases depends on the symptoms, that is, how this malady affects your life. For example, are you able to maintain substantial gainful employment while suffering with this malady?? You did use the "normal overall function", and the VA normally compensates those, if service connected, at 0%. The VA schedule of ratings tries to compensate Veterans to the average degree of loss of income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meghp0405 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 your disability rating will be determined by the METS and your Ejection fraction scores. if you are in the normal range, I would say, service connected with a 0% rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZZ Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 METS 8 LV ejection fraction=55% RV ejection fraction=56% also from prior test ( last year test ) there has been resolution of the reversible ischemia I heard that having concentric hypertrophy should be rated at 30% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
