So, i submitted a claim for "PTSD secondary to sleep apnea". I had no evidence of sleep apnea in the service, except for a few buddy statements. I submitted a package from Dr. David Anaise for the nexus....Had my C&P Exam... the dr (who i would love to share the name of cause shes seriously did not know what the hell she was talking about) kept telling me that "Sleep apnea cannot be secondary to ptsd because it does not cause it", i told her "it aggravates it"... i asked "Why would it be an option for me to choose "sleep apnea secondary to ptsd if it doesnt exist? why would the va even give that option to us".. she said "I dont know". I had all the studies printed out to give to her (as well as submitted in the claim by dr. anaise and myself).. she didnt even read it.. Just kept telling me that ptsd does not cause sleep apnea. I was going back and forth telling her "You dont think that my ptsd aggravates my sleep apnea?" "She says i dont know if it does or not"...... She then said she will grant me "Sleep Apnea" but not secondary to ptsd.. i was like i am not putting in for just "sleep apnea" i am putting it into connection with ptsd. She had no idea wtf she was talking about and had no general understand. I uploaded a statement after the C&P Exam stating all my points. I even showed her a BVA decsion showing that veterans have been service connected for it in the past even (i know) that all claims are individual... she wouldnt have any of it. Just kept denying me and saying not worry as i will get service connected anyway.... Well few monthes go by and i got service connected for it. Amazing... that was like 6 monthes ago.... Fast foward to today and i go through my blue button on myhealthyvet and i saw that that doctor DENIED me and said "b. The condition claimed is less likely than not (less than 50% probability) proximately due to or the result of the Veteran's service connected condition. c. Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea is caused by narrowing of the upper airway leading to obstruction while sleeping. This needs to occur on average a minimum of 5 times per hour to have a diangosis of ostructive sleep apnea. There is currently not enough medical evidence to show that PTSD causes obstructive sleep apnea." also she stated:"I reviewed his medical chart, VBMS records, letters from an outside physician and studies he presented. total time spent 1 hour. After extensive discussion, Veteran did not agree with my medical opinion"Has anyone ever heard of being granted service connection for something that the C&P doc denied you for? i did not appeal or do anything, i was simply granted.... I would really like this doctor to see that she got rejected as bask in all my glory. She was something else... Good luck to all and if you have questions please feel free to ask me.... attached is a letter i submitted after my claim disagree with the c and p doc... stating shes an idiot in kinder words
