hypertension Got My Rating Today!

[TSgtRetiredUSAF]

So I'm pretty stoked I finally, after 9 Months, got my Disability Rating back from the VA!! All the below items were service connected and it breaks down as follows:

Sleep Apnea: 50%

Cardiomyopathy: 30%

Degenerative Disc Disease Lumbar Back: 20%

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: 20% with Bilateral Factor= 22%

Tinnitus: 10%

Hypertension: 10%

Plantar Fasciitis (also Fallen Arches): 0%

Shin Splints: 0%

Allergic Rhinitis w/ Sinusitis: 0%

Migraine Headaches: 0%

GERD associated w/ Gulf War Syndrome: 0%

Hypogonadism: 0%

Dermatophytosis (nail fungus): 0%

Everything else was not awarded a rating and no service connection. All in All it puts me @ 78% combined rating...which makes me 80% Disabled!!

So...I'm pretty happy with the outcome...surprised on the Cardiomyopathy @ 30% everything else is as figured!!

So...now I just get to wait for that back pay check and my monthly payment to start!!!!
