Partly granted
The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 70 percent for PTSD and remanded the claims for service connection for peripheral neuropathy, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, a lung condition, and entitlement to TDIU.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not cause the level of impairment required for a disability rating of 100 percent for PTSD. The evidence was insufficient to decide the remanded claims; thus, remand is warranted.
