Kidney disease decisions — 2003

The Board denied the veteran's claim of entitlement to service connection for a right kidney disorder, finding no current diagnosis and insufficient medical evidence linking the condition to her service-connected hypertension.

The Board has determined that the veteran was unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation due to his service-connected disabilities for two years prior to his death, warranting a TDIU. The issues of an increased rating and service connection have been rendered moot.

The Board found no evidence linking the veteran's current chronic acquired gynecological, back, kidney, psychiatric, and bone disorders to her active service. The claims were denied.
