Granted
The Board granted service connection for migraine headaches, left ankle disability, female sexual arousal disorder, and obstructive sleep apnea. An effective date of October 4, 2021, was also granted for a 70 percent rating assigned for major depressive disorder with anxious distress, PTSD, and cannabis use and alcohol use disorders.
The deciding factor: The private medical opinions provided by Dr. M.B.S., along with the evidence of continuity of symptomatology, supported the nexus between the Veteran's current disabilities and her in-service injuries or conditions.
