The RO granted service connection for residuals of a fractured left great toe and assigned a noncompensable rating. The veteran's claim for service connection for allergies was denied as not well grounded.
The deciding factor: The RO found that the veteran's allergy disability did not increase in severity beyond normal progression or was not etiologically related to any disease or injury she had during service.
