Partly granted
The Veteran was granted service connection for allergic rhinitis, chronic sinusitis, and obstructive sleep apnea, and the initial evaluation for PTSD was increased to 70 percent. Chronic fatigue syndrome was denied.
The deciding factor: The Board found evidence of entitlement to a 70 percent evaluation based on symptoms such as obsessional rituals interfering with routine activities and impaired impulse control.
