Sleep Apnea Secondary to GERD – The Experts Guide

FINAL-FOR THE VETERAN OF THE VETERAN SHARE OF THE DAY

In this high-value post, I’m going to share some expert-level knowledge on how Veterans can service connect their VA claim for Sleep Apnea Secondary to GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease).

Did you know Veterans are nearly 4x as likely to have sleep apnea when compared to those who didn’t serve in the military?

The biggest problem, however, is that you probably weren’t diagnosed with sleep apnea while on active duty, which makes it more difficult to prove direct service connection years after leaving the military.

But, what about sleep apnea secondary to another service-connected disability, such as sleep apnea secondary to GERD?
