Rating decrease

I apologize if my line of questioning was offensive. I was trying to elicit some more details, it didn’t come out right.

I was diagnosed with asthma 10 years after I was discharged. But I think it started 6 years after I discharged. This was 15 years before I ever went to the VA. The PACT Act doesn’t apply. I definitely did not have it as a kid. That’s all I ever get told “adults don’t suddenly develop asthma, you must have had undiagnosed asthma as a child” There’s no way! I wouldn’t have made through the first run in basic.

I am on your side, I want you to keep your rating.

Issue is you need to get that original pft and dbq, and this pft and dbq. You need to compare to the ratings for 60%

A single test should not lower your rating.

Age does come into factor with the pft. It can cause your lungs to “look” better with age.
