Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an adequate VA medical opinion regarding whether the Veteran's obstructive sleep apnea has been aggravated by his service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examination did not address whether the Veteran's service-connected disabilities aggravated his OSA, which is required to be addressed on remand.
