The Board denied service connection for an eating disorder and remanded the claims for headaches, hair loss, sore gums, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), fatigue, left shoulder disability, right elbow disability, left wrist disability, right wrist disability, left ankle disability, right ankle disability, foot disability, and low back disability for further development.

The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of an eating disorder related to service. For the other claims, there was insufficient information to make a decision on the claims, necessitating additional development including VA examinations.
