CLL now active but could go into remission

Question:

My CLL (agent orange related) is active but could go into remission with treatment . My rating is 100% Permanent . It's been 4 years now, I'am 72 years old. If Medication puts me into remission, ( their is no cure for CLL) will I loose my benefits?

Jim's Reply:

Probably not...once you've been rated as P & T, it's recognized that the disease may recur or be in remission with no warning. I doubt that any discussion of lowering your benefit will happen.
