Denied
The Board denied service connection for a urinary disability, other than a kidney disability, and a stomach disability, other than a bowel disability, both claimed as due to contaminated water at Camp Lejeune.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not persuasively support the presence of a current urinary or stomach disability separate from the Veteran's service-connected kidney and bowel disabilities.
