Some of the VA programs, such as the Post-9/11 Veterans Education Assistance Act of 2008, also known as the Post-9/11 GI BillÂ®, can work well with the TA program, as it can supplement fees not covered by TA. In addition, the Post-9/11 GI BillÂ® funds are available to you for up to 15 years after you leave the military.
Not everyone with diabetes develops kidney disease. Factors that can influence kidney disease development include genetics, blood glucose control, and blood pressure. The better a person keeps diabetes and blood pressure under control, the lower the chance of getting kidney disease.
Kidney problems can also increase the risk of other conditions such as cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) disease. Kidney diseases can be serious, but early detection and good management can increase the life of your kidneys. Kidney disease is not always accompanied by warning signs.
