Remanded (sent back)
The Board denied an earlier effective date for a rating in excess of 70 percent for PTSD and remanded the claims for increased ratings for narcolepsy and TDIU.
The deciding factor: The severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's PTSD symptoms did not more closely approximate total occupational and social impairment. A new examination is required to address the severity of the Veteran's narcolepsy.
