Denied
The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for service-connected GERD, finding that the Veteran's symptoms did not more nearly approximate considerable impairment of health.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not support a higher rating as it does not show persistent recurrence or considerable impairment of health due to GERD.
