The Board found that the veteran's claim for service connection for a right foot disability is well-grounded and granted it. The claim for service connection for a gynecological disorder was not well grounded.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed continuity of symptoms related to the claimed conditions during service, which could be considered as new and material evidence in reopening the claim for service connection for the gynecological disorder.

The decision was based on medical evidence that did not support a link between these conditions and the Veteran's military service.

- Denied
The Board denied service connection for various conditions and a TDIU, as the evidence did not support a finding that any of these disabilities were related to the Veteran's military service.
