Question
12thcavmedic
I presently have rating for PTSD, Tinnitus, Hearing loss and Prostate cancer. In April 2021, I was diagnosed with Bladder Cancer. I filed a claim for Bladder cancer since it had recently been listed as one of the Presumptive diseases related to service in Vietnam and exposure to Agent Orange. The claim was received, evidence gathered and has been in review status since August2021. I thought since this was a presumptive cancer, the decision would be determined quicker. Has anyone received a decision for a bladder cancer claim? Thanks for any help and advice offered.
