The Board denied service connection for a back condition and remanded the claims of increased rating for generalized anxiety with major depressive disorder, service connection for hyperhidrosis, acne, bilateral hip condition, and carpal tunnel syndrome or neuralgia/paresthesias of the bilateral arms.,Further investigation is needed to determine if there are any current diagnoses related to these conditions.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support a finding that the Veteran currently suffers from a back condition related to her active-duty service. The Board found no medical records indicating a diagnosis of a back condition and noted that the Veteran's complaints were not supported by objective examination findings.,VA treatment records did not show any current diagnoses for hyperhidrosis or acne, nor did they indicate any relationship between these conditions and the Veteran's active-duty service.
