The Veteran's increased rating for ulnar nerve pathology of the right elbow was granted, with a 40% disability rating effective September 29, 2010.

The Board has determined that additional evidentiary development is necessary prior to the adjudication of the Veteran's claim for a disability rating in excess of 30 percent for ulnar nerve pathology of the right elbow. The case is being remanded to attempt to obtain treatment records from Liston Chiropractic Health and Wellness, fee-based physical therapy treatment records, and any VA treatment records.

The Board found that the assignment of an initial 30 percent evaluation for ulnar nerve pathology of the right elbow was proper, and denied a higher initial evaluation. A separate 10 percent evaluation for a painful and tender scar of the right medial epicondyle from the effective date of service connection has been granted.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for his service-connected lumbar myositis, psychoneurosis and conversion hysteria, residuals of shrapnel wounds of the left thigh and pelvis with retained foreign bodies and scars, and residuals of shell fragment wounds of the right thigh and left leg. The veteran was also denied entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities.

The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial evaluation in excess of 10 percent for his service-connected coronary artery disease, finding that the evidence did not support a higher rating based on the severity of his condition.
