Granted
The Board granted service connection for an anxiety disorder, which is secondary to the Veteran's already service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: The treating VA healthcare professional opined that the Veteran's anxiety disorder is due to his service-connected PTSD, and this opinion was found to be competent, credible, and the most probative evidence of record.
