Other conditions Board decisions

The Veteran's first degree AV block with pacemaker warrants a rating of 60 percent, effective from May 14, 2008, to August 9, 2010. A TDIU is denied.

The Board has remanded the case due to an incomplete record, specifically the lack of the October 2010 informed consent document for the dental surgery. The Veteran's claim will be readjudicated based on this new information.

The Board has determined that the Veteran's right eye disability, claimed as right eye damage, myopia, dry eye and glaucoma, does not meet the criteria for service connection. The case is being remanded to issue a Statement of the Case regarding the remaining issues.

The Veteran's permanent and total disability rating was established in June 2013, which granted basic eligibility for Dependents' Educational Assistance (DEA) benefits. However, the Appellant is not eligible due to her age at the time of eligibility determination.

The Veteran's claim for an initial compensable rating for postoperative umbilical hernia, prior to December 10, 2020, and a rating in excess of 20 percent thereafter is being remanded due to the need for additional development regarding neurological manifestations.

The Veteran's service-connected diplopia has not resulted in any compensable symptoms throughout the appeal period, and therefore, a compensable rating is denied.

The Veteran's appeal for TDIU was dismissed due to his death during the pendency of the case at the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC). The CAVC vacated and remanded the Board's decision, but then dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. As a result, the appeal has been returned to the Board.

The Board has remanded the cases for further examination and opinion regarding service connection for residuals of radiation test, residuals of head surgery, and skin disorder of the head area. The appellant's claims are not related to any specific exposure basis such as Agent Orange or Camp Lejeune.

The Board has granted service connection for bilateral lower extremity peripheral vascular disease and superficial thrombophlebitis, finding that these conditions are related to the Veteran's service-connected right total knee replacement residuals and sarcoidosis.

The Board has remanded the case due to unclear exposure information and a need for clarification on what toxic material the Veteran was exposed to during service. The AOJ should obtain an addendum medical opinion that addresses these exposures.

The Board has decided to remand the case due to insufficient medical opinions regarding the etiology of the Veteran's right hip disorder. The matter is being sent back for further examination and opinion.

The Veteran's appeal for overpayment of VA compensation benefits has been withdrawn by his representative, resulting in the dismissal of the case.

The Board has found that the Veteran's skin condition of the bilateral feet is not related to his service, including exposure to wet conditions. The jaw disability issue remains unclear due to conflicting medical opinions and the lack of clear evidence connecting it to service.

The Board has remanded the case due to the need for additional records and an updated medical opinion regarding the Veteran's exposure to bird droppings in hangars at Moody AFB during service.

The Veteran's claim for an earlier effective date for the addition of his spouse J as a dependent has been denied. The earliest evidence showing that VA was notified of the marriage and dependency status is from October 23, 2014.

The Veteran's colon cancer is related to his radiation exposure during service, and the Board has granted service connection for this condition.

The appeal regarding the termination of benefits from October 24, 2012 to April 17, 2018 is dismissed due to the appellant's death.

The Board has remanded the case due to an undeliverable address for the Appellant. The AOJ needs to verify the correct mailing address and re-send the October 2022 Supplemental Statement of the Case (SSOC).

The Board denied service connection for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, finding no evidence of herbicide agent or radiation exposure during service and noting the Veteran's current diagnosis is not related to his military service.

The Board dismissed the appeal because the appellant died during the pendency of the case, and therefore has no jurisdiction to decide the merits.
