What Am I Entitled To After Being Rated 20%?

Rate this question

Question

Hello,\

I was recently rated at 20% for tinnitus and insomnia. I was denied for hearing loss even though I can't hear squat and I worked on the flight deck of a carrier my whole time in the Navy. But, I already posted questions about that and got some great informative reponses.

I just got my information packet explaining why I was rated where i was rated but it doesn't explain anything else at all.

I guess what I am asking is where do I go from here, and what am I entitled to now that i wasn't entitled to as just a veteran?
