Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for Hashimoto's thyroiditis and denied an increased rating for the Veteran's anxiety disorder.
The deciding factor: The August 2024 VA examination was found to be inadequate, and the evidence of record supported a finding that the Veteran's thyroiditis is related to her active military service through continuity of care.
