Denied
The Board denied entitlement to service connection for a gastrointestinal condition due to the lack of evidence supporting the existence of a current disability and no functional impairment.
The deciding factor: The May 2025 VA examination did not support a diagnosis, and recent medical records showed negative results for gastrointestinal symptoms.
