Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for recurrent rhabdomyolysis and high blood pressure, but remanded the claim for gastroesophageal reflux disease.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on in-service treatment records and post-service evidence supporting a nexus to service. The GERD claim was remanded due to an AOJ error in notifying the Veteran of a backfill rating decision.
