Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of obstructive sleep apnea. The Veteran's symptoms and medical records will be reconsidered.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner's opinion was inadequate because it did not fully consider the Veteran's assertions of sleep disturbances during service.
