The Board denied the motion for revision of the June 1, 2005 decision on grounds of clear and unmistakable error (CUE). The effective date for service connection for diabetes insipidus was granted as November 9, 1979.
The deciding factor: The Board found no CUE in the earlier rating decisions or subsequent ones that did not adjudicate the Veteran's claims for loss of sleep and abnormal water consumption.

A Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence is a separate option. Another Higher-Level Review of the Board decision is not available.
