I have OSA and receive 50% SC Disibility for it. I just found out that the Naval Hospital San Diego diagnosed me with COPD and chest wall pleural thickening in Jan 2016. They did not notify me of this and I found out by accident. Does the combination of COPD and OSA make the rating at 100% ? Should the VA have known and remarked on this during my C&P exam? If so, is this grounds for a NOD and/or CUE? Thanks in advance for your help.
