Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include PTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder; heat stroke residuals; and TBI. The claim for a higher rating for dermatitis of the face was denied, as were claims for increased ratings for bilateral hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the severity of the Veteran's symptoms and their impact on his daily life, as well as the evidence supporting the service connection claims.
