My husband was diagnosed with a TBI years ago, but was never rated by the VA. Now he has been diagnosed with frontotemporal neurocognitive disorder, and there is no family history. How do I get the TBI rated and where do I even start? I have been gathering research and doctor's notes and everything. This life is hard, and his multiple TBIs--at least 5--are service connected. I'd appreciate any insight and assistance. He is already rated 100% for PTSD and additional injuries are rated at 30%, I believe.
I need some help, please

Thank you all! You have been extremely helpful. Sometimes the wording eludes me--I have research from Dr. Corrigan at Ohio State University who leads a team of graduate student working on the correlates of TBI and aging and the relationship to dementia. Frontotemporal dementia can certainly be caused by a TBI. Research is clear.
