asheth007 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I was surprised as I was told claims can take a long time etc. I am new to the VA system medically retired 4 months ago. Raised my rating to 80% combined. The claim was for sleep apnea and the study was done prior to me getting out but not apart of my initial med board process. Just sharing this experience with FDC and my apnea claim. I suspect it takes longer once I have been out of the military for a full year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Tbird Posted October 10, 2014 Founder Share Posted October 10, 2014 Great news, congratulations. Tbird Founder HadIt.com Veteran To Veteran LLC - Founded Jan 20, 1997 HadIt.com Veteran To Veteran | Community Forum | RallyPoint | FaceBook | LinkedIn | About Me Time Dedicated to HadIt.com Veterans and my brothers and sisters: 65,700 - 109,500 Hours Over Thirty Years I am writing my memoirs and would love it if you could help a shipmate out and look at it. I've had a few challenges, perhaps the same as you. I relate them here to demonstrate that we can learn, overcome, and find purpose in life. The stories can be harrowing to read; they were challenging to live. Remember that each story taught me something I would need once I found my purpose, and my purpose was and is HadIt.com Veterans.

HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted October 10, 2014 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted October 10, 2014 There is a new treatment for OSA from Inspire Medical. I had it done and am still healing, but will soon be able to give feedback on success or failure. I have three implanted devices in my body to treat the OSA with hand held device I turn on and off at will. This is the new direction for OSA to be done with the mask and Cpap which has only 50% success rate over time. ctbenja1015 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
