What are the effects of chronic osteomyelitis on contributing to other diseases?
I am looking for reference material to support that chronic osteomyelitis can make someone more susceptable to other diseases, such as an enlarged heart. My father suffered from a disease for more 15 years before developing an enlarged heart, which ultimately lead to his death at age 47. When he died the VA denied the benefits of my widowed mother because they said the Osteomyelitis did not contribute to his death. I am seeking information to address the Veterans Administration support. I've always felt that the Osteomyelitis contributed to his death, although not a direct cause. I need something to back up so my mom can get benefits.
The question arises is that what is the autopsy report. However, if he died of septicemia ie fever high quality due to chronic osteomyelitis, and the causative organism were same as those found in bone injury, is entitled to widow's benefits. Rember that chronic osteomylitis, is a mixture of various bacteria. You can sue the company multiple damages, but his lawyer must be a physician too. convey my deep respect for his mother, Dr.Qutub
