The Veteran's appeal for an increased evaluation of peripheral arterial disease, bilateral lower extremities with scar (previously claimed as clogged arteries) was dismissed because the appeal was withdrawn by the appellant in July 2018.

The Board denied service connection for hypertension, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, carotid artery disease blockage with surgery, peripheral arterial disease, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, and anxiety and depression as not being related to the Veteran's active duty or any herbicide exposure.

The Board granted readjudication of the claim for a right foot disability and denied claims for service connection for headache disorder, erectile dysfunction, diabetes, gout, hypertension, heart disability, right hip disability, left hip disability, peripheral arterial disease, back disability, bilateral hearing loss, tinnitus, and remanded several other claims.

The Board dismissed the claims for service connection for shortness of breath, endocarditis, lipoma, and skin cancer as the Veteran withdrew his appeal. The claim for peripheral arterial disease was denied due to a lack of evidence supporting a current diagnosis. Service connection for a back condition was also denied due to insufficient evidence linking it to service.

The veteran's claim for a higher rating for diabetes mellitus type II was denied due to failure to attend a VA examination. The claims for service connection for a cardiovascular disability and TDIU were remanded for further development.
