Question

Hello, Please bear with me for I don't want to confuse anyone. I usually do but can't help it.
I was recently rated for PTSD which I filed for in May of this year with a July decision.
I have a claim for migraines and sleep apnea in since 2014 and have been denied twice. My neurologist, pulmonologist and ENT doctor all believe my issues were caused by a fall I took of 6' in which I jolted my head plus hit my face and nose area AND now also from my PTSD. The only proof I have of fall are 3 buddy letter, one being from the corpsman who responded.
Should PTSD be listed as a contributor in any Independent Medical Opinion/Nexus letter for migraines or SA at this point? PTSD was a recent rating and I've been fighting for the other 2 issues for 5 years on the basis of the fall and don't want to seem wishy washy with the BVA even though it was recommended that I include PTSD as a contributor.
