Denied
The Board denied service connection for a sleep disorder and a disability rating in excess of 10 percent for right knee tendinosis status post partial ACL tear, but remanded the claim for service connection for a migraine headache disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a separate diagnosis for the Veteran's sleep impairment beyond his service-connected PTSD, and there was no compensable limitation of motion in the right knee to warrant a higher rating.
