Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claims for service connection for fibromyalgia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) due to incomplete evaluations. The claim for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) was granted.
The deciding factor: The Board found that there had not been substantial compliance with prior remand directives, requiring further evaluation.
