Epilepsy & seizure disorders decisions — 2006

The veteran's claimed conditions, including ulcerative colitis, seizure disorder, psychiatric disorder (anxiety/stress), and respiratory disorder (reactive airway disease and chronic cough) are not shown to have had their clinical onset in service or be due to any event or incident therein. Therefore, the claims for service connection are denied.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection for seizure disorder, an increased rating for migraine headaches, and TDIU due to his failure to report for scheduled VA examinations.

The Board has denied the veteran's claims for service connection for peptic ulcer disease, hemorrhoids, and a seizure disorder. The RO also denied his requests for increased ratings for cervical strain and C-5 radiculopathy, as well as entitlement to a temporary total rating (T/TR) and specially adapted housing or a special home adaptation grant.

The Board denied the appellant's claims for service connection for seizure disorder and benign prostatitic hypertrophy (BPH), finding that BPH is not due to an undiagnosed illness or service connection on a direct basis, but rather as a result of his current diagnosed condition.

The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for a seizure disorder, as there was no evidence of a current disability.
