Granted
The Board granted a 10 percent rating for left hip disability based on limitation of flexion and the maximum schedular 10 percent rating for left hip disability based on limitation of extension, subject to the laws and regulations governing the award of monetary benefits.
The deciding factor: The ameliorative effects of medication were discounted, and the Veteran's left hip limitation of flexion more nearly approximated flexion limited to 45 degrees, while his left hip limitation of extension more nearly approximated extension limited to 5 degrees.
