The Board granted service connection for insomnia, denied service connection for asthma and an eating disorder, and remanded claims for gastritis and peptic ulcer disease.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence showing that the Veteran's insomnia was incurred coincident with service, while there was no current disability of asthma or an eating disorder close to the date of claim. The Board found a need for further examination regarding the claims for gastritis and peptic ulcer disease.
