Question
Dave P.
Do I appeal a denial in recent decision rating July 25, 2016, or start a new claim?
One of my claims was denied because I tied it to the wrong service connected issue. I am service connected sleep apnea and restless legs. I've always considered them as one. My claim was for an acquired neurocognitive disorder (memory loss) as secondary service connected condition which I wrote up under sleep apnea instead of restless legs. VA denied claim because of no evidence under sleep apnea. I've experienced memory loss from being on clonazepam for 20 years to treat restless legs. The memory loss was diagnosed by a VA psychologist specializing in memory loss in one meeting requested by my VA doctor and a C&P evaluation, after experiencing serval lapses in memory.
