Hi: Just came yesterday from the doctor who diagnosed me with arthritis. I'm a AO service connected with diabetes type 1, NP in both hands and legs. No family related with arthritis or diabetes. Does the arthritis has to be with my diabetes?

HI: I call a few times to the number in his page with no answer. Send a few e-mails to him with no answer either. Does anyone knows where he can be reached? Thx

And there are md reports that link OSA with diabetes, and cases that had been win, lot of them. Could go any way.If you don't fight you can't survive. Thx

Ok. Thanks, I will call you, hahaha. Thx.

Does the onset of diabetes and OSA appear to be concomitant has nothing to do?

Hi: I went to a private MD for SA. I'm SC with diabetes II and NP in both hand and legs, 50% SC. He gave me this diagnose: "This patient has severe OSA with hypoxemia (!) and this explains the degree of hypersomnia and dysmtos. Also the onset of diabetes and OSA appear to be concomitant. In any case, he warrants therapy with CPAP. Will begin therapy with close follow up to ensure optimal CPAP compliance". Will this could help me to summit a claim? I need advice. Thx.

Thx Berta: Your advice has been very useful. The doctor that made me the exam was the sleep doctor for the VA in San Juan, Puerto Rico for 10 years. He is in a private office in Ponce,PR, a city near mines.

Hi: I need information in what can I do with this medical situation: I'm service connected with DMII by AO.Recently, I went to a private MD to have an exam for Sleep Apnea.

I have 50% rating for DMII and NP in both hands and legs. Thax for your help.
