Denied
The Board denied service connection for a urinary tract disability and an increased rating for posttraumatic stress disorder, but granted an effective date of September 18, 2023, for the PTSD.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a current diagnosis of a urinary tract disability or a higher rating for PTSD due to insufficient symptomatology impacting occupational and social functioning.
