The Board has granted compensation under 38 U.S.C. § 1151 for gastrointestinal disability and psychiatric disability resulting from a fall at VA in July 2012, but denied compensation for respiratory disability.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection and increased ratings, as well as entitlement to a TDIU prior to September 17, 2014.

The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss, denied increased ratings for the right foot stress fracture and scars, restored a 40% rating for lumbosacral strain with degenerative arthritis, and denied earlier effective dates for TDIU and DEA. The Board remanded claims for service connection for a gastrointestinal disability and increased evaluations for the low back and bilateral lower extremity radiculopathy.

The Board denied service connection for various disabilities, including an acquired psychiatric disability, rectal bleeding, erectile dysfunction, a gastrointestinal disability, and headache disability. The denial was based on the lack of probative evidence supporting a current disability or a link to active military service.

The Veteran's service connection claims for HIV, gastrointestinal conditions, CTS and wrist disabilities, epididymitis, left testis condition, penile condition, acquired psychiatric disorder, and bilateral foot disability are all granted. However, the Veteran's secondary service connection claims for these conditions remain denied.
