2010 cancer and other problems

Question:

Jim, had prostatectomy removed in 2010 due to cancer. I do have problems with erectile disfunction and cannot take meds to assist in erection due to heart. I have not had relations with my wife since 2010. I won’t do shots or pumps. I am a Vietnam vet who also has non-Hodgkins in remission. Do I have a claim? Thank you for all you do.

Jim's Reply:

If you haven't claimed the prostate cancer as a disability benefit, yes...you should apply for that. You should also apply for the SMC-k benefit that covers ED. While you're at it, if you feel that all this illness has caused you to be depressed, anxious or to have PTSD, you can file a claim for all that too. You've got work to do!
