Partly granted
The Board dismissed the appeals for service connection for dermatophytosis and type II diabetes mellitus as they were withdrawn by the Veteran. The appeal for service connection for sleep apnea was remanded to obtain a more detailed medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of evidence supporting a causal relationship between the Veteran's service-connected PTSD and his sleep apnea, and the need for further examination.
