Question

It is an honor to be numbered among those who help maintain freedom at a cost. I 20% SC Skin and Asthma and 0% Foot. I served under VII Corps, 3-17FA during the GW and saw plenty of action. During the Campaign, we had to guard the oil fields in which I collapsed and blacked out due to exposure to fumes numerous of times from shifting of winds. After our unit returned to Germany and upon being deactivated and reactivated at Ft. Sill, I began having problems dealing. I was a fast track soldier and moved up the ranks quick, after the GW all that changed; drinking heavily, written up for failure to inform of whereabouts, etc. I was Honorably Discharged; went through problems of maintaining employment for 6 years, homeless, and spent 5 1/2 years incarcerated. Within the last 11 years, struggling in marriage and having a roller coaster ride with current job of 9 years.
I was denied PTSD, Chronic; sleep apnea and irritable bowel syndrome; currently being treated for PTSD by 2 VA Psychiatrist, who diagnosed me on 11/25/13 and 4/14/14. How do I write a RFR on old evidence discovered in service, family and GW buddy letters (100% P&T SC); also connect sleep apnea secondary to asthma (which I was diagnosed three years ago, VA)? Any help is greatly appreciated and as I'm learning, my goal is to assist others as well.
