Question
armynco2006
Good Morning everyone.
I am new to this sight. I am still in the army but due to retire 1 October 2013. I have started my claims process for retirement disability. Several of the claims that I have already filed for are Sleep Apna with a CPAP machine which I know is 50%. I have also been dignoised with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder due to me actiing out my dreams. There has been several occasions where I act out my dreams by either running in my sleep, kicking out, or even grabbing my wifes hair and pulling it. God Bless her heart for putting up with it. I have been put on the drug Kolonpin and it has been very effective. I was only deployed once to Kuwait for about 3 months when I was shipped back to the states for a pre existing shoulder issue which was complicated by the heat and weather there. Can anyone tell me if REM Sleep Behavior Disorder is claimable and does anyone have any idea what the percentage might be? I have seen several post where it was considered a secondary to PTSD, which I dont think I am suffering from that.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
