Denied
The Board denied service connection for unspecified anemia and remanded the claim for Crohn's disease, to include gastritis and ulcerative colitis.
The deciding factor: There was no current disability of anemia as evidenced by a May 2023 VA examination. The Veteran is competent to report symptoms but not to diagnose or establish a disability of anemia.
