HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted August 29, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) congratulation paul you fought a hard fight As for as the reading on the Diastolic Charts The Lower the # the worse your heart is 50/70#are pretty normal anything under that should be rated...you need to make sure who ever reads these charts are qualified like cardiologist ect,,,ect,,, IF YOUR IN DOUBT ASK YOUR CARDIOLOGIST TO READ THEM FOR YOU TELL HIM/HER YOU WANT TO KNOW. JUST DON'T SAY WHY OR MENTION CLAIMS. Another way is take the echocardiogram Chart to the technician ask him to read it for you and give you the #'s (some will some won't) However, these # should be recorded into your medical records. Now with that said the raters have a medical manual with these # 's in it and what ever the Dr says is what they go by.....so if you know your Diastolic # ? check the rating criteria for these # as to what you should be rated.

One place it is will be in your BBE, on the Code Sheet. It will be listed under each item that is subject to a review. it is possible, considering the mix of your conditions, to have more than one review date.

paulstrgn Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 When I had received my C-File back in March everything was listed as Static (this was prior to be granted depression). As long as it takes I think I will put in another request for my C-File. 11 minutes ago, GeekySquid said: One place it is will be in your BBE, on the Code Sheet I will wait for the BBE to arrive.

HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted August 29, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted August 29, 2019 Paul, some times they don't put the code sheet in your BBE just have to wait and see? maybe they are doing that more these days? IDK? I always requested my updated C-file after being rated. to see what all is in it after being rated. the code sheet should be in your C-File. Its a whole lot easier now that the C-File is on CD You can copy it to your computer and use Acrobat Pro Reader (program) and that makes it so much easier to find stuff. The only thing about them copying your paper c-file on CD is it don't copy anything in light pencil SO A LOT OF NOTES WON'T BE IN IT. OR LOOK LIKE CHICKEN SCRATCH AND CAN'T MAKE IT OUT. I know that happen to my c-file This was one of the best things the VA ever did. copying our C-file to CD (jmo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will request my C-File to see what is in it now. After all it takes about six months to get a copy of it. As we all know you never know what you will find in your C-File.
