The Board denied an effective date prior to July 19, 2023 for the grant of service connection for angioneurotic edema.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that VA should have reasonably construed any claim (or any medical evidence relating to any claim) as a claim for angioedema prior to July 19, 2023, as it was not described by the Veteran as part of the claim nor was it described by the Veteran as part of the symptomatology for his skin condition.
