I may have ask this question once before but here it is again. Can asthma and sleep apnea be combined as one single rated service connected disability? I was first rated at 30 % for asthma. Later when the VA approved my sleep apnea claim, both conditions were combined and rated at 50%. After nearly one year of filing the NOD (both aliments should be rated separately), I got a denied decision again and statement of the case (SOC) from the VA. What should I do...should I complete the SOC or just leave it alone. What say you????
