The Board of Veterans' Appeals has denied the veteran's claim for service connection for a prostate disorder and/or a disability manifested by frequent urination, dysuria, and abdominal pain. The appeal is remanded to obtain additional medical records and to provide the veteran with an appropriate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support granting service connection for the claimed conditions based on the current record.
