Subject: VA Health Compensation Claioms

I was in Vietnam in 1967-68 and understand that my type 2 diabetes might be considered a presumptive illness due to agent orange exposure (at MACV near Ton Son Nuht in III Corp area). Also, I have recently been diagnosed with polymyositis and am currently in treatment for it. Polymyositis is a rare autoimmune disorder that severely weakened and damaged all of my core muscles. Some autoimmune illnesses have been linked to agent orange exposure, so I'm wondering if anybody else been diagnosed with this illness and filed a claim with the VA?

Thanks
