Granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of a mood disorder due to known physiological condition with mixed features has been granted. The Board found that the mood disorder is related to the veteran's service-connected disabilities, tinnitus and ingrown toenails with onychomycosis.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that the evidence supports a secondary service connection for the mood disorder based on its relation to the veteran's service-connected conditions.
