Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for obstructive sleep apnea due to a lack of evidence showing a current diagnosis of the condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show a current diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea, and the Veteran was not competent to provide a medical diagnosis or nexus opinion.
