The Veteran's claims for left leg disorder, dizziness, and bilateral foot disorder were denied. The claim to reopen the fungus of the feet was also denied as no new and material evidence was provided.
The deciding factor: No new and material evidence was submitted to reopen the claim for service connection for fungus of the feet (bilateral foot disorder).
