Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for sleep apnea, to include as secondary to service-connected PTSD, for an addendum opinion.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that a remand is necessary due to an inadequate medical opinion regarding the etiology of the Veteran's obstructive sleep apnea and its potential relationship with his service-connected PTSD.
