Sorry to hear of your injuries. It is an issue that you have waited this long to address the failure to evaluate your injuries. The first step would appear to be an appeal to the BCMR. If that does not work, since you appear to not have had a PEB, you can file suit in Federal court.
You would need to focus on both unfitness and the rating for your conditions.

Many thanks Jason!!! I will try to get my C-file and do you think that I should get a Lawyer to do the job or a VSO?

I would not recommend a VSO in this type of situation because you need to cover all the issues that you might raise later in court. An attorney would likely be better suited to the task.
