Granted
The Veteran's claim for asthma was denied as there is no current diagnosis of the condition.,Service connection for tonic-clonic seizure disorder was restored and an earlier effective date was granted.
The deciding factor: The VA examination reports were ambiguous, and the evidence did not clearly establish that the January 2013 rating decision granting service connection for tonic-clonic seizure disorder was improper.
