Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and an earlier effective date of November 7, 2021, for the 50 percent evaluation of migraine disability.
The deciding factor: The probative evidence supported a finding that OSA was proximately due to the Veteran's service-connected PTSD. For the migraine disability, the Board found there was a basis to grant an effective date of November 7, 2021, for the evaluation of 50 percent.
