What you can do next
Related decisions
Other Board decisions on a similar condition or argued the same way.
- Granted
The Board has determined that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities have rendered him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation during the period on review, outside of the convalescent period. As such, a TDIU is granted.
- Granted
The Veteran's recurrent furunculosis and cystic acne are rated at 10 percent, while the residuals of right great toe fracture are rated at 10 percent effective from December 5, 2019.
- Remanded (sent back)
The veteran's claims for increased ratings for his right knee disability, residuals of a right great toe fracture, and allergic rhinitis are being remanded due to the need for additional VA medical records and information regarding private medical treatment.
- Granted
The Board has granted service connection for dysthymia and found that the veteran's current psychiatric disorder began during active service. The other issues on appeal are remanded to obtain VA treatment records, conduct examinations, and determine appropriate ratings.
