Granted
The Board granted service connection for left and right wrist carpal tunnel syndrome, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows continuity of symptomatology following active-duty service, and the Veteran is competent to report her symptoms. The most persuasive evidence weighs in favor of a finding that the Veteran's bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome is related to her active-duty service.
