Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for a higher disability rating for chronic constipation, hemorrhoids with pruritus ani, and service connection for De Quervain's tenosynovitis of the right side.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's conditions were more severe than currently rated or that they were related to her active duty service.
