Preliminary questions [32713]

32721 there is some evidence that a systemic vasculitis may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.

32722 — the veteran has had a systemic vasculitis at some time.

35705 the veteran has had allergic angiitis at some time.

or

35706 the veteran has had Churg-Strauss syndrome at some time.

or

35707 the veteran has had cryoglobulimaemia at some time.

or

10037 the veteran has had Wegener's granulomatosis at some time.

32723 the veteran had the identified illness or injury, a systemic vasculitis, at the time of the clinical onset of peripheral neuropathy.

32724 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the systemic vasculitis and VEA service for the clinical onset of peripheral neuropathy.

32725 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the systemic vasculitis and operational service for the clinical onset of peripheral neuropathy.

or

32726 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the systemic vasculitis and eligible service for the clinical onset of peripheral neuropathy.

Clinical onset and operational service [32725]

32727 — the identified illness or injury, a systemic vasculitis, is causally related to operational service.

Clinical onset and eligible service [32726]

32728 — the identified illness or injury, a systemic vasculitis, is causally related to eligible service.
