The Board has remanded the case due to a need for further action, including obtaining additional information from the Veteran regarding his income and net worth. The claim will be reconsidered after this is done.

The Board dismissed the Veteran's appeals for service connection for right and left lower extremity sciatic nerve problems, as these issues are now considered resolved. The appeal was also remanded to address a broken nose and knee disability claims.

The Board denied service connection for a broken nose, deviated septum, low back disability, left foot numbness, right foot numbness, sinus disability, left elbow and forearm disability, left knee disability, and right shoulder strain. Service connection was granted for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and left hamstring strain. The Board also denied an initial evaluation in excess of 70 percent for posttraumatic stress disorder with residuals of a traumatic brain injury, an initial evaluation in excess of 30 percent for migraine headaches, an initial evaluation in excess of 20 percent for fibromyalgia, and an evaluation in excess of 20 percent for irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea. The Board denied a total disability rating based on individual unemployability as a result of service-connected disabilities prior to December 1, 2023.

The Board denied service connection for a broken nose and a sinus condition secondary to a broken nose due to the lack of current diagnosis and no causal link between the in-service injury and present symptoms.

The Board denied service connection for all conditions except an initial rating of 20 percent for arthritis of the left ankle.
