Erectile dysfunction Board decisions

The Veteran's application for Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance (RH) was denied because it was not filed within the required two-year period after he received notification of his service connection for erectile dysfunction in November 2001.

The Board has determined that the Veteran is entitled to a TDIU effective April 5, 2014, based on his service-connected disabilities. The combined rating of these conditions meets the criteria for a TDIU as of July 31, 2008.

The Board has remanded the case for additional development, including obtaining treatment records and scheduling a VA examination.

The Veteran's combined disability rating does not meet the threshold for consideration of a schedular TDIU, as his service-connected disabilities do not preclude him from securing or following substantially gainful employment.

The Veteran's diabetes mellitus has been rated as 20 percent disabling. The Board finds that the evidence does not support a higher rating at any point during the appeal period.,The Veteran is currently service-connected for erectile dysfunction, but it has not resulted in deformity of the penis.

The Board has remanded the claims due to unclear reasoning and failure to consider a June 2004 decision granting another veteran entitlement to disability benefits for diabetes mellitus resulting from herbicide exposure.

The Board has remanded the Veteran's claims due to incomplete VA treatment records and the need for a statement of the case on several issues.

The Board found that the Veteran's erectile dysfunction was not incurred in service and was not caused or aggravated by his service-connected hypertension. The evidence did not establish a nexus between the current condition and either service or service-connected conditions.

The Board has dismissed the appeal due to the appellant's withdrawal of the appeal.

The Veteran has withdrawn all his pending appeals, including those related to cervical spine disorder, liver disorder (including fatty liver), GERD, skin disorder, left knee disorder, gallbladder disorder (including gallstones), erectile dysfunction, IBS, and bilateral sensorineural hearing loss.

The Veteran's claims for service connection for coronary artery disease and erectile dysfunction were granted effective from October 1, 2010. The erectile dysfunction claim was secondary to the service-connected coronary artery disease.

The Board has remanded the case for further development and examination to determine if the Veteran's claimed conditions are related to his service, including exposure to herbicides. The issues of entitlement to service connection have been raised.

The Veteran's claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected disabilities is being remanded as further examination and medical opinion are needed to address the functional effects of his combined service-connected disabilities, particularly in light of possible increase in severity since his last VA examination.

The Veteran's prostate cancer with erectile dysfunction is entitled to a March 1, 2012 effective date for a 100% rating.

The Board has granted the Veteran's claims for service connection for a right knee disability, left knee disability, skin cancer due to sun exposure, and erectile dysfunction (ED), all secondary to his service-connected disabilities.

The Veteran's low back disability, including radiculopathy of the lower extremities, does not meet the criteria for a higher rating from May 11, 2004 to September 13, 2005 and from September 14, 2005 forward. The erectile dysfunction is service-connected as secondary to his low back disability.

The Veteran's appeal is being remanded to obtain additional medical records and for a new VA examination. The issues of service connection for diabetes mellitus, type II or compensation under 38 U.S.C.A. � 1151 are inextricably intertwined with the erectile dysfunction and peripheral neuropathy claims.

The Veteran's erectile dysfunction has been rated at 20 percent, effective from the date of service connection.,The Veteran's prostate cancer disability with residual voiding dysfunction has been rated at 40 percent, effective June 18, 2009.

The Board found that the Veteran's infertility and erectile dysfunction were not service-connected due to lack of evidence showing an increase in severity during service. The scar on his right testicle was also deemed noncompensable as it did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating under applicable VA regulations.
