Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a new medical opinion to determine if the Veteran's obstructive sleep apnea was aggravated by his service-connected asthma.
The deciding factor: The November 2024 medical opinion addressing aggravation is found inadequate due to lack of supporting data or analysis, necessitating a remand for an addendum opinion.
