Question:
I had pneumonia and was hospitalized for almost a week, I was released from the hospital and the next day I was sent to the CS Chamber, after which I reported to sick bay because I could not breath and they gave me inhalers to assist in my being able to breath. I was in Fort Polk, LA. How would I get that type of documentation. I now have significant COPD. I have not smoked for over 30 years. Is this worth pursuing a disability claim?

I can't say if you should file a claim or not. However, if you file a claim, that's one way of retrieving medical records and you'll have an answer to your questions.
