TSgtRetiredUSAF Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 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!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
