Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for a traumatic brain injury (TBI) as there is no current diagnosis of TBI and the evidence does not support that she has had one at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner opined that the Veteran's two documented head injuries in service did not result in a TBI, and based on review of the entire record and clinical examination, the Veteran does not currently suffer from a TBI or TBI related residuals.
