Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an increased rating in excess of 10 percent for GERD, as the probative evidence did not support a finding of considerable impairment of health to warrant a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms were found to be less severe than those required for a higher rating, and his ability to function daily was not significantly impacted.
