Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for diabetes mellitus was withdrawn and dismissed, while the claim for a kidney disability is remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The Veteran withdrew their appeal for diabetes mellitus, and the Board lacks jurisdiction to review this issue. The claim for a kidney disability requires additional evidence through a VA examination.
