Partly granted

The Board denied a compensable disability rating for the Veteran's acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as it has been in remission since fall 2016. The issue of residuals, including chronic fatigue, memory loss, and peripheral neuropathy, was remanded for further evaluation.

The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's ALL is appropriately rated as noncompensable under Diagnostic Code 7703 due to its current stable and in-remission status. The issue of residuals requires additional evidence through a VA examination.
