PTSD Was upgraded

Rate this question

Question

So in 2018 I recieved a letter stating I was now 100% Va rated. Looks like in 2/2018 the Va combined my TBI @ 40% with my PTSD with alcohol use @ 50% with a secondary sleep apnea 50%(awarded the same day 2/2018) into 1 disability to equal 100%. The TBI effective date was 10/2014 and PTSD 5/2015.

There was also a secondary for sleep apnea added the same day the combined rating was approved on 02/2018. They also game me headaches @ 30% and tinnitus @ 10 the same day my TBI was recorded. 

Do i get back pay since my TBI and PTSD was seperate in 2015 but now combined as one? Thanks in advance.

You should get retro pay, depending on how large the retro pay is the longer it takes to get it.

I am not sure oh how to approach the VA with this. I do not want to get downgraded.
