Dismissed
The appeal for service connection for a heart murmur disorder was withdrawn, and the claim for service connection for hypertension was denied due to lack of evidence linking the condition to active duty.
The deciding factor: The Board found no credible evidence or medical nexus between the Veteran's hypertension and her active-duty service.
