The Board found that there is no objective evidence to support the veteran's claim for service connection for paresthesia of the legs due to an undiagnosed illness, and thus denied the claim.
The deciding factor: There are no objective findings or indicators capable of independent verification to substantiate the veteran's claim for a disability manifested by paresthesia of the legs.
