76 year old with Agent Orange

Question:

Jim, been reading a lot of the posts. My question is after lung cancer surgery, I know that I get a few months to recuperate but is 3 years unusual? I am 76 now and was in Vietnam exposed to AO... I have nerve pain from surgery in different areas.  Been expecting to receive that big brown envelope every day... I have been very lucky and am grateful for the VA...just wondering if my age is why I haven’t been reevaluated?

You're correct...once we reach age 70,  VA is much more likely to leave us alone. Good luck,  sir.
