The Board denied service connection for a heart disability, to include coronary artery disease (CAD), and remanded the issue of entitlement to service connection for impotency.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of a nexus between an in-service event and the Veteran's current diagnosis of a heart disability. The Board also found that matters were remanded to AOJ in March 2024 for outstanding treatment records and to have the Veteran reexamined, but the post-remand VA examinations for impotency did not substantially comply with the Board's previous remand directives.
