Ill try and make this as clear as possible. I've been experiencing pain in joints and tissue for about 3 years and sleepiness with fatigue for about 8. Just recently the sleep has gotten bad. I was diagnosed with Severe Fibro and secondary hypersomnolence as well as severe sleep apnea. Pulmonary instructed me 6 months ago Id have to get out based on the need for a stimulant with the APAP. They wrote in my medical record that I have secondary hypersomnolence and had been councled that I need to be separated for the hypersomnolence as well. Long story short a P3 hit for my fibro and my narsum has been started as well as QTC appointments. Pulmonary refuses to do a p3 because its a secondary symptom but everyone keeps telling me I need the p3 and its for the restrictions which severely hinder my life, family, and ability to get a job in the future. The Ides Doc also said its wrong that my migraines and ibs got rolled up under fibro. I'm told by the VA I shouldn't worry but when I met the Ides Doc he never asked me about my mos, limitations or anything he just talked about himself. My PCM refuses to update any old p2's (had one for wearing a wrist brace in uniform) or do any p3s despite what my medical records reflect. I've tried COC, Patient Advocate, and Ohmbudsme. Problem is everyone says use the umbudsman and that my situation is nuts but the Ohmbudsman have all been out on leave for 2 plus months due to illness. Ive been told I shouldn't worry because the fibro will get me over 40% and va will take care of me. My biggest worry is that the hypersomnolence requires that I have a regimented sleep schedule and medication and I'm going to need that when I'm out. I really don't feel like going the congressional route though. Anyone know who else can add a p3 besides pcm based of medical records?
To add to it Neuro Psych found that I have cognitive imparement but no one wants to add that to a p3 because no one wants to attach it to anything. I can't think of a mechanic that should work on aircraft with a memory issue, can't muti task, etc.. lol Anyone have experience with severe sleep apnea? I have some central but mostly hypopnea, high co2 in my blood, and anon gap, and still some how have 300 plus unexplained arousals at night that pulmonary ignored. I'm kinda feeling like that's the cause of the hypersomnolence but I'm no doc.
