Denied
The Board denied the Appellant's claim for an initial evaluation in excess of 30 percent for Parkinson's disease.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's pending claim was granted in full, and the issue of entitlement to an increased rating would be an impermissible addition to the original service connection claim.
