Looking for Sleep Apnea Expert for NEXUS letter

Rate this question

Question

Good morning all.  I am a 90% rated veteran with PTSD, chronic sinuses, and migraines as well as HBP.   I have had 13 surgeries on my sinuses to correct the problems with little benefit.  I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea about 12 years ago.  I use a CPAP machine. I ETS'd in 2000.   I am looking for someone who has had a good result from an expert who wrote a letter connecting sinuses to sleep apnea.   Or even PTSD.   I of course am not rich, so funds are an issue.  I am told by the AL representative that the opinion, if accepted by the VA would result in an award that takes me to 100%. 

thank you in advance for your assistance.

2 50s, one 70% and 10% HBP = 90% ???

Doe that make sense to anyone here?

Probably only 1 50%. But I'm not good with VA math

 

70% + 50% = 85%

85% + 50% = 93%

93% + 10% = 94%

Then the VA will/would round down for a combined total of 90%.

OR

70% + 50% = 85%

85% + 10% = 87%

Then the VA will/would round up for a combined total of 90%.
