Good day all –
Thank you for this post.
I am a VietNam vet and filed for additional disability for MG based on Agent Orange exposure. I currently have 20% disability for hearing loss.
My claim was denied.
I did quite a bit of research into veteran’s claims and found a number of settled suits that included the claim that Agent Orange caused their MG but were denied because objective evidence as to causality was not linked to MG, so the claims were denied.
During my review of this potential problem, I was unable to find out how many VietNam vets made this claim and how many were denied. The records are not available for review.
Regarding those that think a chemical exposure caused their MG, has any chemical company acknowledged that their chemical caused this disease? Has any government body acknowledged that chemical exposure caused MG? If so, what chemical company and which govt. body?
I would be most interested in any data that shows that MG can be caused by Agent Orange.
Again, thank you for your post.
