Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected disabilities. The claims for myofascial pain syndrome and a seizure disorder were remanded.
The deciding factor: The private psychologist opined that the Veteran's diagnosed psychiatric disorders are at least as likely as not caused by his service-connected disabilities, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
