Hello to anyone that might help:

My husband was a Viet Nam combat veteran with a 100% rating by the VA for PTSD. He passed away from heart disease and hypertension. I need to find documented information connecting heart disease/hypertension with PTSD. If I can find this information than I will be elegible to receive DIC benefits. Or perhaps there is a doctor that is known out there that would be willing to review my husbands death certificate or medical records and write a letter for me so I could submit it to the VA board.

Please help me if at all possible!

Thank you,
DDAllor

You may want to post on the PTSD forum area. You may find more help there.
