Other Board decisions on a similar condition or argued the same way.
- Dismissed
The veteran withdrew the appeal for all service connection and rating issues, and the Board has no jurisdiction to review these matters.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a higher rating for sleep disturbance to correct an error in the duty to assist, specifically whether the Veteran's sleep disturbance symptoms are controlled by continuous medication.
- Denied
The Board denied service connection for a disability manifested by fatigue, finding no evidence of the condition and attributing the Veteran's symptoms to other known diagnoses.
- Denied
The Board denied service connection for fatigue and an initial rating above 10 percent for reactive airway disease, as the evidence did not support a finding of chronic fatigue or a disability that warranted a higher rating based on pulmonary function test results.
