Question
JayBrown1
Since my last post on this subject and reading appeal decisions I found several claims where sleep apnea was granted secondary due to left knee disability. Left knee fused, claimant gained weight, developed sleep apnea and diabetes due to forced sedentary lifestyle from left knee fusion-Docket No. 98-12 648A dated 6/17/05.
I am in a similar situation, I too have had a left knee fusion(1989) and have gained weight and developed sleep apnea to include high blood pressure.
Are there other veterans who have something similar?
