Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection of obstructive sleep apnea to obtain a VA opinion regarding its relationship with the Veteran's service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: A medical examination is necessary due to insufficient evidence in the record to determine if the Veteran's obstructive sleep apnea is secondary to his service-connected PTSD.
