I have an appt with LHI to do my C & P exam for my two claims: 1. Service connected restrictive lung disease, claiming worsening for sleep apnea and 2. Hypertension also service connected, claiming worsening
What can I expect at this exam? Although I am service connected for restrictive lung disease, I am claiming sleep apnea because I have two sleep studies with diagnosed as obstructive sleep apnea, one is with VA and they prescribed me a CPAP that I am using now. Also on my decision letter it states that I claimed sleep apnea while in service but they gave me restrictive lung disease service connected.
My hypertension is service connected with a prescription prescribed while in service and it has worsened.

Not to disagree with Buck52 but I took copies of all pertinent records to my C&P when it was done by an outside examiner. They both thanked me in that they did not have to search through my entir
