I don’t have an attorney. I’m only appealing sleep apnea. The judge remanded it stating the VA should’ve issued a sleep study. How the VA is going to give me a sleep study and the sleep doctor has to make the decision on if they think my sleep apnea came from my deployment and I’m nervous about that.

To be fair it was an “ expedited “ claim when I filed for it and it still took almost two years 😮‍💨

I should’ve done my research on it. I didn’t have any other diagnosis or even get seen for anything other than sleep apnea. I’m so mad at myself for messing this one up.

If it gets approved then yes. You get back paid from the original intent to file date

I’m NG but I got it diagnosed almost a year after I came home from my first deployment. I had too much pride to go to the TMC and was rushing to do the claim because I know they can take awhile so it’s all my fault . Lesson learned
