I was deferred for compensation for my right knee in 2009, however in August of 2010 my letter says I was denied compensation of right knee because I only went to the Dr once for right knee while in service in Vietnam. I want to file again for compensation because I have had major issues with my right knee and hip. Can anyone tell me if it is worth filing again. I am now in a wheelchair because I am (loss of use). I was boots on the ground 1968-69. I was presumed for prostrate cancer because of herbicides. Pls help

nd since you have AO presumptive for prostate cancer, you should double check this list to see if any other things in your health situation might be connected.https://www.publichealth.va.gov/exposures

Not sure what happened to the first part of my posting but... I agree with Bronc; refile. You need not have more than one event connected to you disability being claimed in your medical records,

Nexus letter would help.
