- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)January 2006
The Board has remanded the case due to insufficient evidence regarding whether the veteran's gastroesophageal reflux disease is related to her service-connected bronchial asthma.
- Whole decision: Remanded (sent back)January 2006
The Board has determined that a VA examination is needed to determine if the veteran's GERD was caused by VA medical treatment, including Motrin prescribed in February 1987 and June 1990. The case will be returned for further review after this examination.
- Whole decision: GrantedJanuary 2006
The Board has granted a 10 percent disability rating for the veteran's service-connected hypertensive blood pressure from August 28, 2002 to May 18, 2003. The claim for an increased initial disability rating for bilateral hearing loss is denied.
- Whole decision: GrantedJanuary 2006
The Board has granted service connection for major depressive disorder, finding that the veteran's current condition is related to his military service. The gastrointestinal reflux disease issue remains pending and will be remanded.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection for bilateral hearing loss, degenerative joint disease of the left leg (claimed as secondary to intervertebral disc syndrome), a left ankle disability, and a right ankle disability.
