Partly granted
The Board granted an increased evaluation of 70 percent for the service-connected posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but remanded other issues for further development.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD symptoms have been manifested by occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, such as work, school, family relations, judgment, thinking, or mood; however, they have not been manifested by total occupational and social impairment.
