ptsd How To Service Connect Sleep Apnea And Other Sleeping Disorders
Rate this question
Question
neferaM
brothers and sisters in arms. I developed sleep apnea during service and on thing I am having problems with, is to service connected. I served with the 4ID in Iraq and once we returned to Ft.Hood, the Division was moving to Ft.Carson. Everything was so fast. I was put out the Army two months after our return. Everything was so fast that I never got a phase II phisical. The Army made sure I was out, but I didn't make sure I was getting out with the proper evidence. Now I have sleep apnea. Hard to prove with out evidence (like everything with VA) now I also have ptsd and it seems that I will get a rating. My sleep study is on Monday. What proof can I show VA at this point to garantee a service connection? Does my ptsd will come in to play? Any advice is welcome. Thank. BTW I am looking to service connectee legitimately, I don't want any lies or tricks, so ...please refrain from offering twisted ways to get benefits. Thanks for any advice.

Hello Again neferaM, the earlier research information came from Dr. David Anaise who is a Physician and Lawyer website you will find some great information there. http://www.danaise.com/index.

i agree with Andyman your VSO is wrong telling you ''Your not going to die from sleep apnea'' S.A. can cause all kinds of problems &if you have it do your best to get it SERVICE CONNEC

Lies, tricks, coaching, etc . . . is highly frowned upon here. In most cases "twisted ways" are what vba uses - to deny benefits. jmho
