The VA gave me 60% disability back in 2009 for sleep apnea and pseudofolliculitis barbae. I also submitted a claim for plantar fasciitis which is documented in my medical records but they denied it. I recently submitted another claim for plantar fasciitis again, hypertension (which is documented in my medical record along with my medication. The Va hospital diagnosed me with anxiety and depression I attended the mandatory classes, but the results came back as not being service connected, and I'm really confused and disgusted on their decisions on everything. They did give me a 0% rating service connected for my hypertension. Is there something I'm doing wrong with my claims because I have friends that have less to claim but ended up with more.

It would help too if we can read here the actual C & P exam results.

We need to see your REDACTED C & P DBQ's and Award/Denial Letters. Having a Medical Condition recently DX'd by a VMC or private Dr/Specialist, doesn't guarantee a Service Connection Award.
