Yes, the VA thus far has denied claims several times, each time essentially telling me that I would need to prove that agent orange exposure causes essential tremor. They have acknowledged exposure based on where my ship was. I do have a VSO assisting my claims, he is as upset with how the VA is handling my claim as much as I am. Thus, he suggested trying to connect my having had polio with the exposure but that would require an expert opinion. I already know how easy it is for me to get fatigued, and I deal with the tremors and ED issues to boot, to be totally honest.

I wish they would change that ruling on tremors my husband has had them for 45 years, along with hearing loss and high PSA and the newest finding CT scans that look like cracked glass, and spot on the Kidney, but all VA doctors say not connected to Agent Orange. He should just go outside the VA to a neurologist and see what they say.

Bruce has there been any changes on your claim since the new ruling on Parkinsonsism? I also had Polio as a child. I served in Vietnam in 1966. Thanks Ron
