Question:

I had testicular cancer during active duty. I receive 10% disability I believe for my asthma I developed while active. Does the cancer qualify for loss of organ? My VA letter states service connected disability. Just curious Thank you for your support

If you had testicular cancer and you have a 10% rating, and since you don't seem sure of an asthma rating, I'd have to assume the rating is for loss of a creative organ. A 10% rating called SMC-k is the max for loss of a creative organ. If you can find your original paperwork, that would be a help.
