Denied
The Board denied service connection for hypertension, renal failure, and cervical cancer, as well as special monthly compensation for aid and attendance. The Board granted a disability rating of 20 percent, but no higher, prior to August 7, 2022, for chronic urinary tract infections.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's cervical cancer was related to service or any service-connected disabilities; similarly, her other claims were denied based on the lack of medical evidence linking them to service or service-connected conditions.
