Partly granted
The Veteran's claim for an increased rating of 100 percent for PTSD has been granted, while the claims for service connection for rhinitis, sinusitis, and sleep apnea have been remanded.
The deciding factor: The severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's symptoms closely approximated total occupational and social impairment, warranting a 100 percent rating for PTSD. The other claims were remanded due to lack of notice regarding examinations.
