The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings and service connection, as well as remanded certain issues for further development.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's diabetes or hypertension warranted higher disability ratings, nor was there sufficient evidence to establish service connection for the claimed skin disability or migraine headaches. The Board also remanded the claims for heart disability and TDIU for further development.
