Granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of an insomnia disorder secondary to her service-connected tinnitus was granted. The Board found that the evidence supports that the insomnia is at least as likely as not proximately due to or the result of the service-connected tinnitus.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's service-connected tinnitus aggravated beyond its natural progression the Veteran's non-service-connected insomnia disorder.
