Denied
The Board denied an increased rating in excess of 10 percent for the Veteran's GERD, finding that the evidence did not support a higher rating based on the symptoms reported and the medical examination findings.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's GERD did not manifest as considerable impairment of health and did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under DC 7346.
