Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for head injury scar residuals and remanded the claims for a recurrent disability manifested by fatigue to include chronic fatigue syndrome, and a recurrent intestinal disability, to include irritable bowel syndrome.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's head injury scar residuals were related to his active service. The Board also found that further development was necessary for the other claims due to insufficient medical evidence.
