Question:
I was diagnosed with nonobstructive CAD and mild hypertrophy. I served in Vietnam from 1967 to 1969. Is this something I can file for with the VA?
Jim's Reply:
CAD or Coronary Artery Disease is called Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) by the VA. IHD is a presumptive condition for the Vietnam veteran who served with boots on the ground in the country of Vietnam.
