The Board denied service connection for a systemic pain disability, to include fibromyalgia and remanded the issue of service connection for a stomach disorder, to include gastritis.
The deciding factor: There was no evidence of record reflecting any diagnosed, undiagnosed, or other qualifying fibromyalgia/systemic pain disability during the period on appeal. The Veteran's joint pain, tenderness, etc., have all been shown in the record to have diagnosed, recognizable disorders other than a diagnosed systemic pain disability.
