If a physician specifically states that 414.0x Coronary Artery Disease is due to diabetes, is it coded to "250.8x Diabetes with other specified complications" or to "250.9x Diabetes with unspecified complication"?

I know that it is not included in "250.7x Diabetes with Peripheral Circulatory Disorders" as coronary heart disease is the heart and not peripheral.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
