The Board found that the Veteran does not have a current disability manifested by vertigo and/or dizziness, vision problems or stomach disability. Therefore, service connection for these conditions was denied.
The deciding factor: There is no competent evidence of vertigo, vision problems or a stomach disorder in service or of a disability manifested by vertigo, vision problems or a stomach disorder.
