MEDICAL OPINION It is my opinion that it is at least as likely as not (a 50 percent or greater probability) that Obstructive Sleep Apnea is proximately due to, the result of, or aggravated beyond its natural progression by the veteran's service-connected Chronic sinusitis (38 C.F.R. §§ 3.303, 3.310). In short: but for the veteran's service-connected Chronic sinusitis, Obstructive Sleep Apnea would not have occurred, or would not hav …

In their words
Four sentences that
decide a claim.
Standard language in VA rating decisions. Read cold they sound final. Every one of them is a statement about what is in a file — which is the one thing about a claim you can still change.
Your service treatment records are silent for complaints, treatment, or diagnosis of this condition.
“If it were real, you'd have gone to sick call.”
This is a finding about paperwork, not about you. It says a clerk found nothing written down — in records that were kept by hand, in the field, by an institution that told you to drive on.
What answers it: A silent service record is not the end of the road. Private treatment records, a clinician's written opinion connecting the condition to service, and statements from people who were there all speak to a period the file never documented.
The evidence does not show a link between your current condition and your military service.
“Prove it was us.”
The link the VA is looking for has a name — a nexus — and it is a medical opinion, written by a qualified provider. When no such opinion is in the file, there is nothing for a rater to weigh.
What answers it: That is a missing document, not a missing fact. A nexus opinion states the connection in the language the VA evaluates against, and cites the medical literature and regulations behind it.
The examiner opined that your condition is less likely than not related to service.
“One appointment outweighed your whole life.”
A contract examiner who met you once wrote an opinion, and nothing else in the file argued the other way. The rater is required to weigh the evidence in front of him — and only one side had written anything.
What answers it: An opinion is answered with an opinion. A licensed clinician who has actually reviewed your records can address the examiner's reasoning point by point, and put the other side of the argument in the file.
A higher evaluation is not warranted unless the evidence shows…
“You're rated on what got measured.”
This sentence is the VA telling you exactly what it looked for and did not find. Range of motion nobody put a goniometer to, flare-ups nobody wrote down, episodes nobody counted — all of it gets rated at the minimum.
What answers it: The rating criteria are published. Knowing which measurements your condition is rated on, before the exam, is the difference between a record that documents your worst day and one that documents the twenty minutes you spent in a waiting room.
Every one of these is walked through, section by section, in How to read your VA decision letter.
