Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection of obstructive sleep apnea to afford the Veteran a new VA examination and medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examinations were found inadequate, and the Board requires an opinion addressing both causation and aggravation by the Veteran's service-connected PTSD.
