Granted
The Board granted service connection for sleep apnea, secondary to PTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, and major depression, resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
The deciding factor: The evidence was approximately evenly balanced as to whether the Veteran's sleep apnea was caused by his service-connected psychiatric conditions, and reasonable doubt was resolved in the Veteran's favor.
