The Board has determined that the veteran does not have current seizure disorder or cardiovascular disability, and thus service connection for these conditions is denied. The initial rating claim for postoperative residuals of left carpal tunnel syndrome remains unresolved.
The deciding factor: The available evidence does not establish current seizure disorder or cardiovascular disability in the veteran's case.
