What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.

Other Board decisions on a similar condition or argued the same way.
- Denied
The Board has denied service connection for overactive bladder and bilateral foot conditions (plantar fasciitis and hallux valgus) as there is no persuasive evidence that these conditions began during active service or are related to an in-service injury, event, or disease.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded both claims of entitlement to an extraschedular rating for migraine headaches and service connection for overactive bladder, as the evidence is insufficient to determine if these conditions are related or aggravated by the Veteran's service-connected migraines.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded two issues: entitlement to an extraschedular rating for migraine headaches and service connection for overactive bladder, which the Veteran claims is secondary to his migraine headaches. The Veteran's reports of pain spreading from his head to his hand and arm are being referred for clarification by a VA examiner. Additionally, the issue of whether the Veteran's overactive bladder condition has been aggravated by his migraine headache disability is also being referred.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's claim for service connection for overactive bladder and dysuria is being remanded due to the inadequacy of a previous VA medical opinion. The new examination will assess whether her current symptoms are related to her period of service.
