or
36619 — the veteran has established the causal connection between iron overload and eligible service for the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
or
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service. the condition under consideration permanently worsened. as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran had iron overload at the time of the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.36617 — the veteran has established the causal connection between iron overload and VEA service for the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.
