The Board denied service connection for erectile dysfunction, left hand tremor, and right hand tremor as the evidence did not support a current diagnosis of these conditions or a link to the Veteran's active duty service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not establish a current disability or a nexus between the claimed disabilities and the Veteran's active duty service due to lack of medical evidence supporting such claims.
