Denied
The Board denied service connection for phlebitis due to a lack of evidence supporting the claim, and remanded the issue of service connection for headaches for further development.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support the Veteran's claim for service connection for phlebitis as there is no current diagnosis of the condition. The Board also found that the Veteran's headaches are less likely than not related to her in-service injury or any service-connected disability.
