Partly granted
The Board denied an increased rating for PTSD with TBI and granted service connection for vertigo as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected traumatic brain injury.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not more closely approximate occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity, but his vertigo was found to be due to his service-connected TBI.
