Granted
The Board granted service connection for vertigo, finding it to be secondary to the Veteran's already service-connected hypertension.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's vertigo was more likely than not caused by his service-connected hypertension, and the Board resolved all reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
