Some of you are rated for SMC-K at $99.00/month on top of any other rating. This may include a variety of disorders to include loss of one hand or one foot. It also is paid for loss of use of a creative organ as many of you with DM2 are aware.

The VA has started including vasoinhibitors as available drugs to help those with ED. Mycoxaphlopen  (sold under the trade name Everhard)and Mydixadroopin (generic equivalent sold as Hardix) are now available by prescription. VA is also offering it as a sublingual (under the tongue) tablet.  Here is the rub. By accepting this prescription, VA will drop your SMC-K rating as soon as the VHA communicates this to the VBA. This usually takes six months.  I would suggest avoiding this by getting the prescriptions from private doctors.

We’ll keep you updated on any developments as they arise.
