Hi Brother; I was stationed at NKP as a sentry dog handler from Mar. 69-70. Was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes less than 6 weeks after discharge. Turned down 3 times by the VA. Suffer from 2 heart attacks, 2 by pass surgeries, amputated right leg above the knee and less than 30% blood flow in my left leg, loss of feeling in left leg, neuropathy. We got a raw deal!!!!!

My response to your posting in 2007, is this, how recently were you turned down. It sounds like you need to keep appealing. I would be interested in corresponding with you since I have another Thailand vet who is already 100% but have issues on appeal for prostate cancer and diabetes type II.
