Can you not locate any of your Army records or just the ones concerning the blood in the urine.

I noticed that you have 30% for PTSD. How did you secure this without your service records?

I am sure that someone on this site can assist you.

Max,

Were your records burned in the fire at St. Louis? You sound like you have been at your claim just a tad longer than I have.

How long have you had this illness? Did you begin with a kidney infection after service?

Is there anything that you can tell us about your illness right after service or how long after service did you have your first problem with your kidney's.

I know quite a bit about the kidneys.

These is association of this disease and many other kidney disorders with diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes mellitus is a presumptive service connection for Vietnam Vets.

Have you been checked for diabetes?
