The Board granted service connection for asthma, migraines, and hyperhidrosis as secondary to the service-connected generalized anxiety disorder with depressive disorder. The claim for seborrheic dermatitis was remanded due to an incomplete medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The weight of the evidence shows that the Veteran's asthma, migraines, and hyperhidrosis are caused by his service-connected psychiatric disorders. Seborrheic dermatitis requires further examination as the current opinion is inadequate.
