Denied
The Board denied service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, finding that it was not caused by or aggravated by the Veteran's service-connected insomnia.
The deciding factor: The VA examiners and a private physician concluded there is no medical evidence linking the Veteran's obstructive sleep apnea to his service-connected insomnia disorder.
