Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for Meniere's disease as secondary to tinnitus due to a lack of evidence supporting the current diagnosis, while remanding the claim for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo for further development.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the absence of a current diagnosis of Meniere's disease and the failure to address aggravation in the VA examination report for the secondary service connection claim.
