Granted
The Board granted service connection for parkinsonism and obstructive sleep apnea, both as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected seizure condition associated with adjustment disorder, mixed anxiety and depressed mood, mild neurocognitive disorder with traumatic brain injury (TBI), to include tension headaches.
The deciding factor: A nexus was established between the Veteran's service-connected seizure disorder and his diagnosed parkinsonism disability, as well as a causal relationship between the Veteran's service-connected seizure disorder and his obstructive sleep apnea.
